Surely I will sigh for you
A couple of months, half a year, a year and a half, what does it matter?
Surely I will be replaced
A couple of friends, a lover, a freeloader or a deity
Let it be as it has to be
Let it be, I will understand
Let it be as you want it to be
Let it be, I have the virtue
To adapt to whatever comes
And be content with what I get for love
Oh!
Surely one day you will cry
When your feverish crazy desires to sin end
Surely you will compare me
And you will find that it will be too late when you want to come back
Let it be as it has to be
Let it be, I will understand
Let it be as you want it to be
Let it be, I have the virtue
To adapt to whatever comes
And be content with what I get for love
Let it be

deidaddeity

Deidad translates to "deity" or "god/goddess". It's a word with a strong, almost mythical connotation that isn't commonly found in everyday Spanish songs.

In the lyrics, Joan Sebastian sings about being replaced by "un par de amigos, un amante, un vividor o una deidad." The inclusion of "deidad" among more mundane replacements adds a touch of dramatic irony and hyperbole, suggesting that his replacement might be someone so perfect or revered that they're almost god-like, or perhaps he's just being playfully dramatic about the situation. This makes it a memorable and intriguing word choice.

"Que Sea" ("Let It Be") is Joan Sebastian's meditation on accepting a relationship's outcome with dignity instead of resistance.

He tells his partner that whatever happens between them, he will make peace with it: whether she stays or lets someone else take his place, whether it takes months or years to move on, he can adjust to whatever comes and be content with whatever love gives him in return.

Rather than begging or fighting for control, the song's resignation is its strength. He predicts she may one day regret leaving, but insists he already has the strength ("la virtud") to adapt to whatever she decides. It's a graceful surrender to fate in love, not defeat.
