Cuando Me Muera

The day I die
let no one cry for me,
tears are salty water
and salt doesn't take root.

Tears are salty water
and salt doesn't take root.

Throw me on my back to the field
and open my eyes,
I want to keep looking
at the sky I couldn't reach.

I want to keep looking
at the sky I couldn't reach.

Let no one pray for my soul
and let no one beg to God,
I have no more thanks
to pay that favor.

I have no more thanks
to pay that favor.
I'm walking slowly,
anyway, I'll get there.

Life is not in a hurry,
death knows how to wait.
Life is not in a hurry,
death knows how to wait.

One day thinking about something
I wanted to dream, and for what?
I had plenty of thoughts
but I couldn't find the dream.

Throw me on my back to the field
and open my eyes,
I want to keep looking
at the sky I couldn't reach.
