Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cómo Será by Lila Downs from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Despertar y no verte
wake up and not see you
Por la mañana
In the morning
Y rodar por tu ausencia
And roll by your absence
Aquí en mi cama
Here in my bed
Escuchar el silencio
listen to the silence
De tus palabras
of your words
Un silencio tan blanco
such a white silence
Como el alma
like the soul
Cuando salga el sol
When the sun rises
No estarás aquí
you won't be here
Y te irás con mis sueños
And you will go with my dreams
Arrancándolos de mí
ripping them from me
Cuando salga el sol
When the sun rises
Me dirás adiós
will you say goodbye
Y quisiera saber
and i would like to know
Lo que yo seré sin ti
What I will be without you
Seré una tarde sin sol
I will be an afternoon without sun
Una estrella perdida en el mar
A star lost at sea
Una sombra, un silencio mortal
A shadow, a deathly silence
Una huella de amor
a footprint of love
Seré yo el eco de un lamento
I will be the echo of a lament
La nostalgia del recuerdo
The nostalgia of memory
Fría escarcha en el invierno
cold frost in the winter
Una roca de sal
a rock of salt
Seré una estela del pasado
I'll be a wake from the past
Una flor que ha marchitado
A flower that has withered
Golondrina que muy sola se quedó
Swallow that was left very alone
Encontrarme tus besos
find me your kisses
En la distancia
In the distance
Y anhelar tu calor de madrugada
And yearn for your warmth at dawn
Caminar el sendero
walk the trail
De mi nostalgia
of my nostalgia
Un sendero de ausencias
A path of absences
Que no acaba
that does not end
Cuando salga el sol
When the sun rises
Cuando salga el sol
When the sun rises
Seré una tarde
I will be an afternoon
Seré yo el eco
I will be the echo
Seré una estela
I'll be a wake
