Bendito el lugar

Blessed is the place

Y el motivo de estar ahí

And the reason we're there

Bendita la coincidencia

Blessed is the coincidence

...

...

Bendito el reloj

Blessed is the clock

Que nos puso puntual ahí

That brought us there on time

Bendita sea tu presencia

Blessed is your presence

Bendito Dios por encontrarnos

Blessed God for crossing our paths

En el camino

On the way

Y de quitarme esta soledad

And for taking away this loneliness

De mi destino

From my destiny

Bendita la luz

Blessed is the light

Bendita la luz de tu mirada

Blessed is the light in your gaze

Bendita la luz

Blessed is the light

Bendita la luz de tu mirada desde el alma

Blessed is the light in your soulful gaze

...

...

Benditos ojos que me esquivaban

Blessed are the eyes that avoided me

Simulaban desdén que me ignoraban

Pretending disdain, ignoring me

Y de repente sostienes la mirada

And suddenly you hold my gaze

Daram-diri, daram-diriri

Daram-diri, daram-diriri

Bendito Dios por encontrarnos

Blessed God for crossing our paths

En el camino

On the way

Y de quitarme esta soledad

And for taking away this loneliness

De mi destino

From my destiny

Bendita la luz

Blessed is the light

Bendita la luz de tu mirada

Blessed is the light in your gaze

Bendita la luz

Blessed is the light

Bendita la luz de tu mirada, oh

Blessed is the light in your soulful gaze, oh

Gloria divina de esta suerte, del buen tino

Divine glory of this luck, of good judgment

Y de encontrarte justo ahí, en medio del camino

And of finding you right there, in the middle of the road

Gloria al cielo de encontrarte ahora

Glory to the heavens for finding you now

Llevarte mi soledad y coincidir en mi destino

To bring my loneliness to you and share our destiny

En el mismo destino (¡Épale!)

In the same destiny (Hey!)
