Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cucurrucucú Paloma by Natalia Lafourcade from Spanish to English.
los quiero invitar a que canten esta
I want to invite you to sing this
canción con ella
song with her
dicen que por las noches
they say that at night
hasta que no vea nómadas que viven puro
until you see nomads who live pure
juran que el mismo cielo se estremece
they swear that the sky itself shakes
un estudiante como su padre
a student like his father
por ella que hasta allá
for her that up there
de las llamas
of the flames
quien me prometiste de mañana
who promised me tomorrow
con sus puertas de par en par
with its doors wide open
juran que esta paloma no es otra cosa
they swear that this dove is nothing else
más que su alma
more than his soul
que todavía le espera a que regrese
that she is still waiting for him to return
