[English]
You will reserve a place in glory for me
A place where both of us can fit
You will wait for me with ten Eves with apples in their mouths
Dancing the hula-hula in my honor
When I die
I will throw a party where the sun never sets
Where friends and enemies will toast
Because I will return in the skin of a song
...
And you will smile in the end, when everything for me
Is the dream I pursue with fervor
The promises of caresses will be little for me
If I don't see my people smile
When I die
I will throw a party where the sun never sets
Where friends and enemies will toast
Because I will return in the skin of a song
When I die
I will throw a party where the sun never sets
Where friends and enemies will toast
Because I will return in the skin of a song
Because I will return in the skin of a song
Because I will return in the skin of a song
Because I will return in the skin of a song
Because I will return in the skin of a song
