Lloverá y yo veré la lluvia caer

It will rain and I will see the rain fall

Lloverá y yo veré la gente correr

It will rain and I will see people run

Lloverá y yo veré la lluvia sin más

It will rain and I will see the rain without more

Y lloverá y lloverá

And it will rain and rain

Mira que mira, Miranda

Look at that, Miranda

Tus zapatos no son de tacón

Your shoes aren’t high-heeled

Tu vejez es sólo la inocencia

Your old age is just innocence

De los que nunca piden perdón

Of those who never ask for forgiveness

Deja ya de coser tus historias

Stop sewing your stories

Con puntos a favor

With positive points

Mira que mira, Miranda

Look at that, Miranda

Tu deseo es la incapacidad

De aquellos que un día lucharon

Por poder dar un paso atrás

To take a step back

No te creas que todo es sencillo

Don’t think everything is easy

No hay que disimular

You don’t have to pretend

Y si te vas

And if you leave

Le contaré a la gente tu vida

I’ll tell everyone about your life

Tus problemas, tus malas espinas

Your problems, your bad thorns

Para que algún día puedas volver

So someday you can come back

Y volverás

And you will return

Cuando creas que todo ha cambiado

When you think everything has changed

Cuando todo quede en el pasado

Y te sientas bien otra vez

And you feel good again

Mira que mira, Miranda

Look at that, Miranda

Que mirando se llega a mirar

That looking is how you get to see

Lo que mira y remira el mirado

What the looked-at keeps looking at

Al que mira y remira la mar

The one who looks and keeps looking at the sea

Por si aún no te has enterado

Just in case you haven’t realized

Esto no va de mirar

This isn’t about just looking

Mira que mira, Miranda

Look at that, Miranda

Tu garganta no sabe aguantar

Your throat can’t hold back

Tus locuras ganando batallas

Your craziness winning battles

Y ya mezclan azúcar con sal

And they’re already mixing sugar with salt

No te rías de todo y de nada

Don’t laugh at everything and nothing

No lo podré soportar

I won’t be able to stand it

Y si te vas

And if you leave

Le contaré a la gente tu vida

I’ll tell everyone about your life

Tus problemas, tus malas espinas

Your problems, your bad thorns

Para que algún día puedas volver

So someday you can come back

Y volverás

And you will return

Cuando creas que todo ha cambiado

Cuando todo quede en el pasado

Y te sientas bien otra vez

And you feel good again

Y te vas y te vas, por no esconderte

And you go, and go, for not hiding

Y te vas y te vas, por no mirar

And you go, and go, for not looking

Y te vas y te vas, por no esconderte

And you go, and go, for not hiding

Y te vas y te vas, ya no volverás

Y te vas y te vas, por no esconderte

Y te vas y te vas...
