Como La Cigarra

So many times they killed me
So many times I died
However I am here
Resurrecting

Thanks I give to the misfortune
And to the hand with dagger
Because it killed me so badly
And I continued singing

Singing to the sun like the cicada
After a year under the earth
Like a survivor
Returning from the war

So many times they erased me
Many disappeared
To my own funeral I was
Alone and crying

I tied a knot in my handkerchief
But I forgot afterwards
That it was not the only time
And I came back singing

Singing to the sun like the cicada
After a year under the earth
Like a survivor
Returning from the war

So many times you were killed
So many you will resurrect
So many nights you will pass
Desiring

At the time of the shipwreck
And that of the darkness
Someone will rescue you
To go singing

Singing to the sun like the cicada
After a year under the earth
Like a survivor
Returning from the war
