Lara, rara, rara

Quizás no lo sea mañana

He ahí el valor del momento

That’s the value of the moment

He ahí el presente perfecto

That’s the perfect present

La oportunidad de llegar

The chance to arrive

Tú verás si te montas en ella

You’ll see if you get on it

Agárrate fuerte

Hold on tight

Y ya no te sueltes

And don’t let go

Ríe, llora

Laugh, cry

Que a cada cuál le llega su hora

Because everyone’s time comes

Ríe, llora

Vive tu vida y gózala toda

Todo es tan relativo

Everything is so relative

No es que recuerde, sino que no olvido

It’s not that I remember, but I don’t forget

Eso es el perdón

That’s forgiveness

Recordar sin dolor
