One Good Turn

Un Buen Giro

One Good Turn

Desde el polvo fui hecho, al polvo volveré"From dirt I was made, to dirt I will return
Y todo lo que parezco ser no es quien soyAnd all I might seem to be is not who I am
Pues el Padre allá arriba me ha dado vida y alientoFor the Father above has given me life and breath
Y todo lo que tengo es suyoAnd all that I have is His

Desde el polvo fui hecho, al polvo volveréFrom dirt I was made, to dirt I will return
Y todo lo que parezco ser no es quien soyAnd all I might seem to be is not who I am
Pues el Padre allá arriba me ha dado vida y alientoFor the Father above has given me life and breath
Y todo lo que tengo es suyoAnd all that I have is His

Los besos matutinos alejan la noche,Whispering morning kisses away the night,
Y luego ella toca el río, haciendo que la niebla se eleveAnd then she touches the river, she's making the mist to rise
Y la niebla se desprende del agua, él gira y ríe y se va,And the mist comes off the water, he spins and laughs and he leaves,
Y luego baila un momento, oh, pero la música es breveAnd then he dances a moment, oh, but the music is brief

El tiempo sigue girando, un giro merece otroTime keeps turning, one turn deserves another
Solo estoy aprendiendo lo que tú ya sabesI'm just learning what You already know
Vivimos solo un momento, venimos y vamosWe live but a moment, we come and we go

Y el halcón viene cabalgando y corriendo por el cieloAnd the hawk comes riding and racing across the sky
Y persigue a los vientos, y se despide con un gestoAnd he chases the winds, and he turns to wave goodbye
A la tormenta que se desata en medio del díaTo the storm that's kickin' up in the middle of the day
Pero ahora la lluvia no durará mucho, pronto será arrastradaBut now the rain won't last long, soon she'll be blown away

El tiempo sigue girando, un giro merece otroTime keeps turning, one turn deserves another
Solo estoy aprendiendo lo que tú ya sabesI'm just learning what You already know
Vivimos solo un momento, venimos y vamosWe live but a moment, we come and we go

Quién sabe si has venido a este mundoWho knows but that you have come into this world
Para un momento como esteFor such a time as this
Quién sabe si has venido a este mundoWho knows but that you have come into this world
Para un momento como esteFor such a time as this

Silenciosamente la tarde envía brasas dentro de los cielosSilently the evening sends coals within the heavens
A esta cuna silueta como un pájaro en su nidoTo this silouette cradle like a bird within her nest
Y el día está en su otoño cuando la noche está en su esplendorAnd the day is in his autumn when the night is in her bloom
Y ahora los colores caen, cediendo su lugar a la lunaAnd now the colors are falling, they're giving their way to the moon

El tiempo sigue girando, un giro merece otroTime keeps turning, one turn deserves another
Solo estoy aprendiendo lo que tú ya sabesI'm just learning what You already know
Vivimos solo un momento, venimos y vamosWe live but a moment, we come and we go

Quién sabe si has venido a este mundoWho knows but that you have come into this world
Para un momento como esteFor such a time as this
Quién sabe si has venido a este mundoWho knows but that you have come into this world
Para un momento como esteFor such a time as this
Quién sabe si has venido a este mundoWho knows but that you have come into this world
Para un momento como esteFor such a time as this
Quién sabe si has venido a este mundoWho knows but that you have come into this world
Para un momento como esteFor such a time as this"
