El Anciano y El Niño

(Globo Life)

I feel something in my head
I've been in pain for several days
My words get tangled
I still don't speak well

My eyes weigh me down
My health is running out
And I never thought that walking
Then, it would cost me

An old man said to me
While his eyes were crying
He said he wanted to fly away
As he looked up at the sky
He still remembered when he worked hard
And a stroke in his brain wouldn't let him do anything anymore

He began to advise me
Though thinking was hard for him
He said his youth was like a fairy tale
For a body to decay
Time is needed
Even the most beautiful rose, with time, withers away

The oak tree rots
The water is wasting away
The smoke disappears
And people are dying

That she felt her old age watching her grandchildren growing up
And now she feels it more than anything else, it's preventing her from doing so

And I'm watching it all come to an end
Nothing lasts forever
The body is wearing out
The strongest oak tree, someday it's gonna fall down
Nothing lasts forever, children will grow up

It's like sticking to a relationship that won't last
Like children who grow up and then will grow apart
I'm aware that whoever feels and relies on the superficial
Knows no souls and clamors for the material

Said old man refuted with his tired voice
He said: Read the bible, fulfill God's requirements
That death always wants to see you close to his sickle
And the vices bring you closer to it, they are an atrocious curse

And me: No, no, no, no, don't talk to me about vices
They are only prejudices that the same people made for themselves
It's up to each one to decide if their life on the street kills
How many drug addicts don't rot with their money?

We humans screw up
We go through terrors
The shits are shit, we wallow in it
Whoever shits a lot turns his life into a knot
Because the evil got the better of him
May God forgive me if I explain everything so crudely

We humans screw up
We go through terrors
The shits are shit, we wallow in it
Whoever shits a lot turns his life into a knot
Because the evil got the better of him
May God forgive me if I explain everything so crudely

No one knows if, after death, we can see each other
If reincarnating in a heaven or hell
If in the hell that you keep
You keep it, but in you, inner me
And your heaven is you, but in your tender side

The tender side can be compassion
The fear of feeling alone
It only ceases with religion
Loneliness in the mind is the worst feeling
And you won't be lonely when God is with you

(No one knows if after death we can see each other, never)
(What if the hell that you keep)
(You keep it, but in your inner self)
Never
