Dios Me Señalo
José Alfredo Jiménez
God Pointed Me Out
Sea, you reached the shore
that God pointed you to.
Sea, you can't encompass,
even if you wanted, more than I.
Sea, you reached the shore
that God pointed you to
to stay calm,
calm and still,
despite your greatness and your fury.
But you wait
for the wind to accompany you,
and between the two of us
to form a storm;
between the two of us
to create a thousand tempests,
and drag along in their path
whatever they find.
Sea, you reached the shore
that God pointed you to.
Sea, you can't encompass,
even if you wanted, more than I.
I, who forcefully
want to take hold of that love.
But always my life
stops at the shore
that God also pointed out to me.
