No Llora
El Cuarteto de Nos
Don't Cry
When the girl wants to walk, she starts walking
And falls when she stumbles
She has to get up because that's how she improves
The girl keeps moving forward, the girl doesn't cry
When in the garden another kid takes a toy from her
Pushes her, pulls her hair, and squeezes her
And she doesn't interpret that invasive attitude
The girl defends herself, the girl doesn't cry
When they laugh at her for not acting like other people
For thinking differently and being open-minded
And they despise what she values
The girl ignores them, the girl doesn't cry
I don't know if these words will go to the wind
But I have heard the wind speak
When she has no one close
And the pain doesn't let her think
And if my eyes aren't there to seek answers
She doesn't cry
When she makes a mistake, when with her limitations
She collides, and they suffocate her
She acknowledges the mistakes and stands up
The girl learns from that, the girl doesn't cry
When her heart hurts for love
And a temptation clouds her judgment
And she discovers that there is no savior
The girl becomes strong, the girl doesn't cry
When she crumbles
When her best friend betrays her
And she gets disappointed
And feels like a part of her soul evaporates
The girl will know if she forgives, the girl doesn't cry
I don't know if these words will go to the wind
But I have heard the wind speak
When she has no one close
And the pain doesn't let her think
And if my eyes aren't there to seek answers
She doesn't cry
When they propose something irregular to her
When someone tries to take advantage of her
She doesn't give up the principles she treasures
The girl doesn't stay silent nor does she cry
When she feels she has no strength, that she's dying
That nothing makes sense, and nobody loves her
The girl thinks of dad singing to her 'don't cry'
The girl doesn't give up, nor does she cry
When she has no one close
And the pain doesn't let her think
And if my eyes aren't there to seek answers
She doesn't cry
