Te conoci una manana I met you one morning
Con tu nombre de mujer When a king
Evocado por un rey. Breathed your woman’s name.
Tu imagen, tu cara Your image, your face
Una noche vino a mi Came to me one night
Y contigo, And with you along
La historia Centenaria The centenary history
De un pedazo de tierra. From a piece of Land.

Adoro tus anos y tu vida I worship your years, your life.

Se que te sentaras a mi lado I know you will sit by my side
Un dia sagrado On a sacred day
Y Desvelaras a mis oidos y And will reveal to my ears,
A mi Corazon To my heart
Los secretos del tiempo. The secrets of Time.
Ann Nixon Cooper, Ann Nixon Cooper,
Tu cuerpo, Your body,
Baul de tesoros, Trunk with treasures,
Eternidad, Eternity,
Vida. Life.
