Plegaria Para Un Niño Dormido
Almendra
Prayer for a Sleeping Child
Prayer for a sleeping child
Perhaps he has flowers in his belly button
And also on his fingers that turn into bread
Paper boats without open sea
Prayer for the child's dream
Where the world is a little chocolate
Where a thousand sleeping children go who are not there
Among bicycles of glass
The sleeping child laughs
Perhaps he feels like a sparrow this time
Restlessly playing in the gardens of a place
That he will never find awake
Let no one, no one, wake the child
Let him keep dreaming of happiness
Destroying rags to polish
Moving away from all evil
The sleeping child laughs
Perhaps he feels like a sparrow this time
Restlessly playing in the gardens of a place
That he will never find awake
Prayer for a sleeping child
Perhaps he has flowers in his belly button
And also on his fingers that turn into bread
Paper boats without open sea
The sleeping child laughs
Perhaps he feels like a sparrow this time
Restlessly playing in the gardens of a place
That he will never find awake
