Vivencias [English translation]

Today I have returned to my home

that I left as a child,

with my dreams, my sorrows

and the nostalgia in my heart.

I was looking for a new life,

like the night looks for the light,

firm in what I believed in,

blinded by my youth.

Yes, twenty years

and a way to go

with the power in my hands

and a dream in my soul.

Twenty years in a moment,

when I look back,

mean experiences of time,

that I won’t be able to forget.

And I still remember the days

when I was happy for no reason,

when I was giving everything

without hope of getting something in return.

And I could tell you

about so many people that I met,

about the days and the nights,

and the roads that I traveled.

Yes, twenty years

and a way to go

with the power in my hands

and a dream in my soul.

Twenty years in a moment,

when I look back,

mean experiences of time,

that I won’t be able to forget.

Love goes away,

time passes by,

time that

will never return.
