Muchacha [Ojos de papel] [English translation]

Paper eyed girl

Where are you going? Stay until dawn

Girl, little feet

Stop running! Stay until dawn

Dream a little dream slowly in my hands

Until the sun comes up through the window

Girl, rayon skin

Stop running! Your time has come

And stop talking, girl

Heart of chalk

When everything is asleep

I'll steal a color from you

Girl, voice of sparrow

Where are you going? Stay until dawn

Girl, breasts of honey

Stop running! Stay until the morning

Sleep a little and meanwhile I'll build

A castle with your belly until, girl

The sun makes you laugh and burst into tears, into tears.

And stop talking, girl

Heart of chalk

When everything is asleep

I'll steal a color from you
