[English]

Seated, waiting for the sunset

Floating above the lake, watching the blue sky

This reality

Begins to speak to me of you

The birds sing your song early in the morning

The grass along the path is a poem of

Your indelible voice

That formed around me

I can feel you close, in laughter and in pain

When my heart leaps with emotion as I meditate

You are deep within every breath I take

With the stars

You speak to me, and each day

I feel you showing me your kindness

...

Looking at the horizon from where I am

My imagination disappears among the clouds

And a gentle voice

Begins to speak of you

Leaves are falling all around me

What hurt me is left in the past

And today I can understand

That you care for me with love

I can feel you close, in laughter and in pain

When my heart leaps with emotion as I meditate

You are deep within every breath I take

With the stars

You speak to me, and each day

I feel you showing me your kindness

...

I can feel you close, in laughter and in pain

When my heart leaps with emotion as I meditate

You are deep within every breath I take

With the stars

You speak to me, and each day

I feel you showing me your kindness

Ta-ra-ra-ra

Pa-pa-pa

And each day you show me your kindness

Mmh-mmh

...

[Spanish]

Sentado a la espera de un atardecer

Flotando sobre el lago viendo el cielo azul

Esta realidad

Me comienza a hablar de ti

Las aves muy temprano cantan tu canción

El césped del camino es un poema de

Tu indeleble voz

Que formó mi alrededor

Puedo sentirte cerca, en risa y en dolor

Cuando me brinca el corazón al meditar

Estás en lo profundo de cada respirar

Con las estrellas

Me hablas y cada día

Siento que me muestras tu bondad

Mirando al horizonte desde donde estoy

Se pierde entre las nubes mi imaginación

Y una suave voz

Que comienza a hablar de ti

Las hojas van cayendo a mí alrededor

Se queda en el pasado lo que me dolió

Y hoy puedo entender

Que me cuidas con amor

Puedo sentirte cerca, en risa y en dolor

Cuando me brinca el corazón al meditar

Estás en lo profundo de cada respirar

Con las estrellas

Me hablas y cada día

Siento que me muestras tu bondad

Puedo sentirte cerca, en risa y en dolor

Cuando me brinca el corazón al meditar

Estás en lo profundo de cada respirar

Con las estrellas

Me hablas y cada día

Siento que me muestras tu bondad

Ta-ra-ra-ra

Pa-pa-pa

Y cada día tú me muestras tu bondad

Mmh-mmh
