[English]

He looked at her to say goodbye

And he walked away with the light of the sky

He went to fly, he has no limits

He took possession of the light of the sky

He will come to see her one night in April

To see her smile

A light lit in ivory color

Will shine for her endlessly

A flower whispers from a distance

Her voice is heard with the light of the sky

All noise suddenly turned to calm

She saw him with the light of the sky

Soul of my soul, you have made me dream

I will love you forever

In the moon, my love, I will find you

When the sky calls me to fly

I know, I know

I will see you in the sky, I will see you

I know, I know

I will see you in the sky, I will see you

She will dream every morning

To see her love with the light of the sky

He will be her beloved star

And will shine with the light of the sky

Soul of my soul, I will take care of you

I will love you forever

In the moon, my love, I will find you

When the sky calls me to fly

I know, I know

I will see you in the sky, I will see you

I know, I know

I will see you in the sky, I will see you

...

He will come to see her one night in April

To see her smile

A light lit in ivory color

Will shine for her endlessly

(Light of the sky)

Soul of my soul, I will take care of you

I will love you forever

In the moon, my love, I will find you

When the sky calls me to fly

Light of the sky

...

[Spanish]

La miró para despedirse

Y se alejó con la luz del cielo

Fue a volar, no tiene límites

Él se adueñó de la luz del cielo

Pasará a mirarla una noche de abril

Para verla sonreír

Una luz encendida de color marfil

Brillará para ella sin fin

Susurra una flor a la distancia

Se escucha su voz con la luz del cielo

Todo ruido, de pronto, se hizo calma

Ella lo vio con la luz del cielo

Alma de mi alma, tú me has hecho soñar

Para siempre te voy a amar

En la luna, vida, te voy a encontrar

Cuando el cielo me llame a volar

Lo sé, lo sé

Te veré en el cielo, te veré

Lo sé, lo sé

Te veré en el cielo, te veré

Soñará cada mañana

Ver a su amor con la luz del cielo

Será su estrella enamorada

Y brillará con la luz del cielo

Alma de mi alma, te voy a cuidar

Para siempre te voy a amar

En la luna, vida, yo te voy a encontrar

Cuando el cielo me llame a volar

Lo sé, lo sé

Te veré en el cielo, te veré

Lo sé, lo sé

Te veré en el cielo, te veré

Pasará a mirarla una noche de abril

Para verla sonreír

Una luz encendida de color marfil

Brillará para ella sin fin

(Luz del cielo)

Alma de mi alma, te voy a cuidar

Para siempre te voy a amar

En la luna, vida, yo te voy a encontrar

Cuando el cielo me llame a volar

Luz del cielo
