The House You Built

Solías conocer tan bien esas manos desgastadas
You used to know so well those weathered hands,
Cuando eran suaves, cuando los trajeron el color a tus mejillas
When they were gentle, when the brought the colour to your cheeks.
Todavía lo hacen, pero no es lo mismo, porque te dieron la espalda
They still do, but not the same, because they turned their back on you,
Y cuando se esconda a tus pies, sabes que te quedarás
And when she's hiding at your feet, you know you'll stay.

Estos sentimientos son de segunda mano
These sentiments are second hand.
Está luchando por su corazón pero está perdiendo terreno
He's fighting for his heart but he is losing ground.
Ella no es intencional, no desamada
She's unintended, not unloved,
Y tú eres el que la mantiene sana y salva
And you're the one to keep her safe and sound.

No mires hacia abajo, aunque te estén mirando hacia abajo
Don't look down, even though they're looking down on you.
La casa que construyas en terreno sólido será un hogar. Con el tiempo, lo verás
The house you build on solid ground will be a home. In time, you'll see it.
No mires hacia abajo, aunque te estén mirando hacia abajo
Don't look down, even though they're looking down on you.
El amor que construyes tu casa alrededor llegará a casa a tiempo para verlos a través
The love you build your house around will make it home in time to see them through.

Sus zapatos están rayados, ella arrastra sus pies demasiado
Her shoes are scuffed, she drags her feet too much,
Pero bebé levanta tu cara, no necesitas justificar tu lugar
But baby lift your face, you don't need to justify your place.
Así que quédate lo que eres, has llegado hasta aquí
So stay just what you are, you've come this far.
Si pudiera mostrar tu futuro te iluminarías como el sol
If only I could show your future you would light up like the sun.

Está luchando por tu futuro y está ganando terreno
She's fighting for your future and she's gaining ground.
Estás protegido, eres amado
You are protected, you are loved,
Así que muéstrales quién eres, hazles sentir orgullosos
So show them who you are, make them proud.

Oye, pequeña luz, ¿no eres un gran triunfador?
Hey little light, aren't you a big achiever?
Hey Sra. Podria, sé que usted cree en ella
Hey mrs might, I know that you believe in her.
Hey Sr. golpeado, encontró su corazón otra vez
Hey mr beaten down, you found your heart again.
Con la esperanza de que construyeras tu casa alrededor
In the hope you built your house around,
Le diste a tu pequeña luz un nuevo comienzo
You gave your little light a brand new start.
