Cuando Yo Me Muera
Valentín Elizalde
When I Die
When I die I don't want you to cry
Have a party with fireworks and flowers
Serve wine and bring me mulberries
So they can play my own songs
When I die take me to the hill
So they can wake me up at the foot of an oak tree
Instead of a coffin, put a mat
And instead of candles, bottles of wine
And if I die far from the love I want
Send a letter and have them come right away
So they can kiss me
As a farewell
When they leave me with the earth on top
When I die, release doves
So they can take my soul on their wings
Get permission at the church in Guasave
So the bells can ring for me
And if I die far from the love I want
Send a letter and have them come right away
So they can kiss me as a farewell
When they leave me with the earth on top
