Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics

Oh, motherOh, madre

I was born in your eyesNací en tus ojos

I was walkingEstaba caminando

The day I came to lifeEl día que cobré vida

And I've come beside myself to knowY me he dado cuenta de mí mismo al saber

I'm just a person with highs and lowsQue solo soy una persona con altibajos

Oh, fatherOh, padre

I was raised in your handsFui criado en tus manos

I was fightingEstaba luchando

Before I could understandAntes de poder entender

And I've got a lot of things to learnY tengo muchas cosas por aprender

And things I don't think that I deserveY cosas que no creo merecer

Come lay your headVen, apoya tu cabeza

And come rest your tired eyesY descansa tus ojos cansados

Fall back insteadRetrocede en su lugar

Feel your breath internalizeSiente tu aliento interiorizar

And come lay your headY ven, apoya tu cabeza

And come rest your tired eyesY descansa tus ojos cansados

And fall back insteadY retrocede en su lugar

Fall back insteadRetrocede en su lugar

When I try to fall asleepCuando intento dormir

I'm lifted from my bed sheetsSoy levantado de mis sábanas

Where the ground is falling downDonde el suelo se desploma

And the night is far too loudY la noche es demasiado ruidosa

I'm giving upEstoy renunciando

I'm giving inMe estoy rindiendo

Everything is risingTodo está aumentando

Come and rest your tired eyesVen y descansa tus ojos cansados

Your youth's fadingTu juventud se desvanece

Everyone is leavingTodos se están yendo

And I cannot complainY no puedo quejarme
