El Ultimo Baile

Father, this is the last dance,
it's time to sleep,
for today it's been enough,
we leave it here.

Father, you shouldn't have raised me like this,
but that's how it happened,
and now I want to try running again
without even having learned to walk.
I know it's not common for me to hear the truth,
but let me at least try to change.

And let them remove from my soul
this mortal sin,
that drowns me and drags me
like the water during high tide.

And Father, look how the sky opens,
and the bluer it is
the harder it will be
to leave later.

Just give me one reason
to stay here,
if the night died and the moon was seen
doomed once again to disappear.

And so do I,
someone who tried
and who finally said
