[English]

To feel freedom

Like a bird returning to its home

To search within yourself

Is to be able to give life another color

I will open the gates of heaven

I will burn for you

I will melt your ice with fire

I will give you peace

To be able to express the silence written on a piece of paper

To be able to guess

When you simply must stay silent

I will open the gates of heaven

I will burn for you

I will melt your ice with fire

I will give you peace

To feel...

Where you are going

You froze...

My heart

I will open the gates of heaven

I will burn for you

I will melt your ice with fire

I will give you peace

I will open the gates of heaven

I will burn for you

I will melt your ice with fire

I will give you peace

[Spanish]

Sentir la libertad

Como un ave que regresa hacia su hogar

Buscar dentro de ti

Es poder darle a la vida otro color

Abriré las puertas del cielo

Arderé por ti

Quemaré con fuego tu hielo

Te daré la paz

Poder expresar el silencio que se escribe en un papel

Poder adivinar

Cuando simplemente debes de callar

Abriré las puertas del cielo

Arderé por ti

Quemaré con fuego tu hielo

Te daré la paz

Sentir...

A dónde vas

Congelaste...

Mi corazón

Abriré las puertas del cielo

Arderé por ti

Quemaré con fuego tu hielo

Te daré la paz

Abriré las puertas del cielo

Arderé por ti

Quemaré con fuego tu hielo

Te daré la paz
