De Niña a Mujer [English translation]

You were a very silent little girl,

yet you loved me very much.

Your glance used to look for mine

and you pretended to be a woman.

As you grew a little older

you dressed in another skin

and I, who didn’t expect anything,

loved you also very much.

I missed you so much

that when you were not by my side

I was already dreaming to see you again

and in that time I could see how you turn

from a girl to a woman.

And this very silent girl

was flying so high that

my glance was trying to reach her,

but I could no longer see her.

For me the she stopped to grow

I thought she would never grow up,

but the time has cheated me,

my little girl turned into a woman.

I loved her so much

that when she went away from me

I knew that I was going to lose her,

because also her soul was changing

from a girl to a woman.

I loved her so much

that when she went away from me

I knew that I was going to lose her,

because also her soul was changing

from a girl to a woman.
