LYRICS ( Español):
Hay un dolor, un dolor que solo es para mí. Este dolor es el agua que me hará crecer. Como planta de luz dentro de mí, un jardín de resplandor que amanece con el sol, mi corazón empieza palpitar. La telaraña del mundo nos vino a unir. Hay un amor, un amor que sólo es para mí. Es la unión, es la vida que me hará danzar. El agua, la raíz, la flor, la tierra, el viento. Cuando a mis ojos entra el respirar, el ser capaces ver. No con los ojos— con el alma, con la piel. El fuego restaura mi muerte para resucitar. Hasta ser capaz de sentir. ---------
LYRICS (English translation):
There is grief, a grief that is only mine. This sorrow is the water that will make me grow. Like a plant of light inside of me, a brilliant garden that rises with the sun, my heart begins to beat. The spiderweb of the world came to unite us. There is love-- a love that is only mine. It is unity, it is life that makes me dance. Water, root, flower, earth, wind-- When breath enters my eyes, I am able to see. Not with my eyes-- with my soul, with my skin. Fire restores death to bring me back to life. Until I am able to feel.
