Lyrics

Translation

No te pido que te cuides

I don't ask you to take care of yourself

Esa delgadez extrema

That extreme thinness

Solo pido que me mires

I only ask that you look at me

Con esa mirada buena

With that good gaze


Tus ojos no son luceros

Your eyes are not bright stars

Que alumbran la madrugada

That illuminate the dawn

Pero si me miran siento

But if they look at me, I feel

Que me tocas con tus manos

That you touch me with your hands


Tus manos no son hermosas

Your hands are not beautiful

No veo estilo en tus dedos

I don't see style in your fingers

Pero qué humanos reposan

But how human they rest

Si se enroscan en tu pelo

If they curl in your hair


Tu pelo ya sin color

Your hair already without color

Sin ese brillo supremo

Without that supreme shine

Cuida y resguarda con celo

Take care and guard with zeal

Lo que cubre con amor

What it covers with love


Tu cerebro porque piensas

Your brain because you think

Porque es tu clave y motor

Because it's your key and engine

Va generando la fuerza

It's generating the strength

Que me hace humano y mejor

That makes me human and better


Cuerpo, manos, ojos, pelo

Body, hands, eyes, hair

Carne y hueso inanimados

Flesh and inanimate bones

Que cobran vida

That come to life

Y por eso quiero vivir a tu lado

And that's why I want to live by your side
