Otro día más [English translation]

It’s already past six

when she wakes up

She wears the same sweater today,

though with more tears

After cleaning a little the dust

that has settled in her home,

she cleans a little her failure

and her desire to cry

to see how her little one wakes up so happily:

“…if you knew, darling,

the day that waits for us…”

(Chorus)

And in her reality, she’ll see the city grow

and its people in their worlds will come and go

while she, in her role, will continue watching pass

one day less in her life, one day more

one day more

It was pain who gave her

advice on how to love,

to look at the heart

and never look back

But sometimes injustice

gets hold of all the control

and in the corner of Pokhara

she can see us both

I joke with my friends:

“This afternoon, drinks are on me”,

while she sees something

go dying inside her

(Chorus x2)
