[English]

If only one could

live between the two

first I will love the world

and then I will love God

If only one could

Live between the two

first I will love the world

and then I will love God

If only one could

come from this earth

enter heaven

and return to the earth

so that between the earth

the earth and the sky

there was never any ground

In the first

sex, violence and tires

blood sports

coins in throats

In the second

glimmers, doves and saints

grace, the fruit and the kiss of the scale

If only one could

live between the two

first I will love the world

and then I will love God

[Spanish]

Quién pudiera

vivir entre los dos

primero amaré el mundo

y luego amaré a Dios

Quién pudiera

Vivir entre los dos

primero amaré el mundo

y luego amaré a Dios

Quién pudiera

venir de esta tierra

entrar en el cielo

y volver a la tierra

que entre la tierra

la tierra y el cielo

nunca hubiera suelo

En el primero

sexo, violencia y llantas

deportes de sangre

monedas en gargantas

En el segundo

destellos, palomas y santas

la gracia, el fruto y el beso de la balanza

Quién pudiera

vivir entre los dos

primero amaré el mundo

y luego amaré a Dios
