Yo aprendí [English translation]

I have learned that most of the times

things are not what they seem to be.

That we are a species that specialize at lying.

Count how many times we make ourselves disappear

with a single phrase what we wouldn't want to ever lose.

Life's swaying away, we're letting escape

the train of love that only passes once.

I have learned to not spoof with arrogance

because I do not know which my circumstances are

and elegance is just a matter of ego.

The clothes in which I see myself the best

is the one of the soul.

I have learned that karma is a good advisor

when taking accurrate decisions.

That I am not the one to blame

but that with the opportunist I must be fierce.

I know that one can make mistakes

like a normal human being.

That getting forgiveness is very valuable,

but even more forgiving.

That one cannot trample one's word,

one's morality.

That love's not enough when respect isn't.

It's like plowing in the sea.

I am no better than no one else, no one else is better than me.

Even though I don't know how everyone wants to be alike, how the people clones itself, loses their own voice

and don't know where to walk when getting back up.

I have learned that wanting to know everyone says about me is my semi-threat.

It's opening the door to envy, saying to her "how are you, miss? Enter, this, your home".

That things happen, but errors weight on.

Because then they drag you, because then they smash you like chains in the soul.

I know what is missing a brother when he's not there for you.

I know that the one who suffers the most is the one who loves you the most.

I jnow I will have another dawn where I got no pillow.

I have already learned that life is beautiful, but it's no fairy tale.

I know that one can make mistakes

like a normal human being.

That getting forgiveness is very valuable,

but even more forgiving.

That one cannot trample one's word,

one's morality.

That love's not enough when respect isn't.

It's like plowing in the sea.
