[English]

Quien bajo la lluvia le dio nombre

El mismo que...

A su semejanza hizo al hombre

...

Quién le dice al viento que repose

El mismo que... a pesar de todo me conoce

El orgullo de mis olas dejé fui soltando mi quebranto, fui colmandome a sus pies

...

Yo me salvé, volví a nacer

Yo me salvé, volví a nacer

Encontré la paz en el agua amansa del remanso

Yo me salvé

La prueba del milagro esta en sus manos

Uh Oh

Al que dio su luz a las estrellas me mudo Con todas mis faltas a sudera

El orgullo de mis olas deje fui soltando mi quebranto fui colmandome a sus pies

...

Yo me salvé, volví a nacer

Yo me salvé, volví a nacer

Encontré la paz en el agua amansa del remanso

Yo me salvé

La prueba del milagro esta en sus manos

Uh Oh

Yo me salve Yo me salvee ahhhh

Yo me salvé, volví a nacer

Yo me salvé, volví a nacer

Encontré la paz en el agua amansa del remanso

Yo me salve la prueba del milagro esta en sus manos
