La vuelta al mundo [English translation]

Do not give me more books

because I do not read them.

That which I learn

is because I see it.

The more the years pass,

I contradict myself when I think.

Time does not move me,

I move with the time.

I am the desire to live,

the desire to cross,

the desire to know

what is beyond the ocean.

I hope that my mouth

never is silenced.

I also hope that these airplane turbines

never fail.

I don't have it all figured out

nor my life settled,

I only have one smile

and I hope one return.

I have confidence in destiny

and in the surf. I don't believe in the church

but I believe in your eyes.

You are the son on my face

when I wake up,

I am the life that I have,

you are the life I am missing.

So grab your suitcase,

the package, the (motetes),

the luggage, your bag,

the backpack with all your toys, and...

Give me your hand and let's go around the world,

go around the world,

go around the world.

The income, the salary,

the work en the office,

I changed the stars

and for orchards and flour.

I ran away from the routine

to pilot my own trip

because the bucket I lived in

turned into scenery.

I was an object

waiting to be ash.

One day I decided

to heed the breeze.

To go slipping

behind your shirt.

Nobody convinces me,

but your smile does.

And I left you behind,

pursuing my instinct,

if you want true change,

well, walk different.

I will escape to

the nearest constellation.

Luck is my oxygen,

your eyes are my window.

I want to run by seven lakes

on the same day.

To feel the temperature of your

cold buttocks on the top of my thighs.

To reach the top of the mountsin,

hug the clouds,

dive into the water and see

how the bubbles rise, and...

Give me your hand and let's go around the world,

go around the world,

go around the world.
