Esperando a Nacer
Pancho Puelma
Waiting to be Born
Today I can feel everything
I can laugh,
I can't think or speak
But I'm happy,
I don't feel cold or hot
Everything is going well and I'm growing
I'm not hungry or worried
And I feel a great love
And from this divinity
I will have to depart
My father and mother are waiting for me
They have ideas for me
That I would like to share all
But today I feel it would be good
For me to stay here.
The grandfather says he will be an engineer,
A great architect would be perfect,
And if he's an artist, oh horror, a bohemian,
Better a girl who fulfills my dreams,
Who follows in the footsteps of Jesus of Nazareth, no, no, better a businessman who will be a millionaire,
A famous doctor, a crazy physicist,
And I just want to learn to breathe.
And now that the time has come,
To leave to all those who await me
I will say I want to laugh, sing, play,
Feel the sea and also cry,
That's why I feel it would be good
For me to stay here.

And I just want to learn to breathe
