Sapos Y Cigarras

Frogs And Cicadas

Sapos Y Cigarras

She went out to buy the flowersSalio a comprar las flores
To color the housePa colorear la casa
She had her soul plantedTraía el alma sembrada
With bubbles and frostDe burbujas y escarchas
Today jasmine and lilies grow in the skyHoy crecen en el cielo jazmines y azucenas
And she waters them calmly knowing she was goodY ella riega tranquila sabiendo que fue buena

Running along the beachCorría por la playa
Singing to the wavesCantándole a las olas
She shone inside and outBrillaba dentro y fuera
Like the seashellsComo las caracolas
To sum up the story, she was a beautiful thingPa' resumir el cuento era una cosa bella
To sum up the story, she became my starPa' resumir el cuento se convirtió en mi estrella

And from beyond the sky you send meY de más allá del cielo me mandas
This letter, saying you heardEsta carta, que dice que escuchaba
My verses in the soulMis versos en el alma
From beyond the sky you shine on meDe más allá del cielo me brilla
A little star saying I should sing to herUna estrellita que dice que le cante
That she watches over me from thereQue desde allá me cuida
From beyond the sky you tell me in the soulDe más allá del cielo me dices en el alma
To the rhythm of a rain, with frogs and cicadasAl compás de una lluvia, con sapos y cigarras
That she didn't want to leaveQue no quería marcharse
Without telling me anythingSin avisarme nada
That an angel embraced herQue un ángel la abrazaba
And didn't want to let her go, oh oh ohY que no quiso soltarla hay hay hay

To sum up the story, she was a beautiful thingPa' resumir el cuento era una cosa bella
To sum up the story, she became my starPa' resumir el cuento se convirtió en mi estrella

And from beyond the sky you send meY de más allá del cielo me mandas
This letter, saying you heardEsta carta, que dice que escuchaba
My verses in the soulMis versos en el alma
From beyond the sky you shine on meDe más allá del cielo me brilla
A little star saying I should sing to herUna estrellita que dice que le cante
That she watches over me from thereQue desde allá me cuida
From beyond the sky you tell me in the soulDe más allá del cielo me dices en el alma
To the rhythm of a rain, with frogs and cicadasAl compás de una lluvia, con sapos y cigarras
That she didn't want to leaveQue no quería marcharse
Without telling me anythingSin avisarme nada
That she didn't want to leaveQue no quería marcharse
Without telling me anything (repeat)Sin avisarme nada (bis)
