Translation

Que cosa que de repente se me ha

What a thing that suddenly I have

Ido el suelo y está el vacío esperándome

Lost the ground, and emptiness is waiting for me

Nada me puede atajar nada firme

Nothing can stop me, nothing firm

Adelante mío no es que me caiga

In front of me, it's not that I fall

Se me ha ido el suelo y lo voy a seguir

The ground has gone, and I will follow it


No te asustes, no, no te asustes

Don't be scared, no, don't be scared

Si ves que como respaldo lo tengo al viento

If you see that as support, I have the wind

Y no queda nada bajo mis pies

And there is nothing left under my feet

Me voy a pique nomás

I'm going down just like that

Y aunque rompa el aire de un tajo

And even if the air breaks in one stroke

No es que me caiga, es que voy pa' abajo

It's not that I fall, it's that I'm going down

A tocar el fondo de lo que

To touch the bottom of what

Soy de una buena vez

I am once and for all


No me llores, no, ya he de venir

Don't cry for me, no, I will come back

Voy a encontrarme con mi suerte

I will meet my luck

Buscando lejos de todo lugar

Looking far from any place

Hasta lejos de mí

Even far from myself

De lo más hondo te quiero pedir

From the deepest, I want to ask you


A gatas abro los ojos de tanto miedo

Crawling, I open my eyes with so much fear

No hay asidero que pueda ver

There is no hold that I can see

Bajo zumbando nomás

Falling just like that

No hay abrazo ni soledad donde me he metido

There is no embrace or loneliness where I have gone

Nada se ve, y hay que seguir

Nothing is seen, and one must continue


No te asustes, no, no te asustes

Don't be scared, no, don't be scared

Si ves que no quedan voces al lado mío

If you see that there are no voices beside me

Que me hagan bulla y me hagan reír

To make noise and make me laugh

Nadie se puede acercar

No one can approach

Pero, hermano, no hay soledad

But, brother, there is no loneliness

Donde me he metido

Where I have gone

Me arenga el aire con su silbido

The air cheers me with its whistle

Y me da su mano para seguir

And gives me its hand to continue
