Me gusta verte hablar de la cocina
I like to see you talk about cooking
Con la seriedad que Gorvachov aborda el tema
With the seriousness that Gorbachev approaches the subject
De la caída de su cortina
Of the fall of his curtain
Me gusta verte remendar mi pantalón
I like to see you mend my pants
Que hubiese ido a dar a la basura
That would have ended up in the trash
Si hubiese sido otra la situación
If the situation had been different
Me gusta verte sonreír cuando lo normal era llorar
I like to see you smile when normal was to cry
Me has gustado siempre y hoy me gustas mucho más
I've always liked you, and today I like you even more
Porque sin aludir a la fortuna
Because without referring to fortune
Aquella noche de luna tu vientre se hizo cuna
That night of the moon, your womb became a cradle
Trayendo el fruto de algo mutuo
Bringing the fruit of something mutual
Y es que tan sagrada tu labor
And your work is so sacred
Que, pariendo con dolor, materializas el amor
That, giving birth with pain, you materialize love
Volviendo humano el sentimiento
Making feelings human again
Me gusta verte en el supermercado
I love seeing you in the supermarket
Escoger los abarrotes
Choosing the groceries
Según la economía nos haya tratado
Based on how the economy has treated us
Me gusta ver tu abdomen de perfil
I love seeing your profile from the side
Que viene a recordarme
That comes to remind me
Que de una nueva vida seré yo el albañil
That I will be the builder of a new life
Me gusta verte ese swing que has adoptado al caminar
I love to see that swing you’ve adopted while you walk
Y es que me gustas toda, incluso verte estornudar
And it's that I like you completely, even to see you sneeze
Porque sin aludir a la fortuna
Because without referring to fortune
Aquella noche de luna tu vientre se hizo cuna
That night of moonlight, your belly became a cradle
Trayendo el fruto de algo mutuo
Bringing forth the fruit of something mutual
Y es que tan sagrada tu labor
And your work is so sacred
Que, pariendo con dolor, materializas el amor
That, giving birth with pain, you materialize love
Volviendo humano el sentimiento
Making feelings human again
Me gusta verte en el supermercado y tu swing al caminar
I love to see you in the supermarket and your swing while you walk
Y tantas otras cosas, pero más me gustarás
And so many other things, but I will like you even more
Cuando alguien te llame mamá
When someone calls you mom
