Ruido [English translation]

You appeared out of nowhere

like a burst of light.

When I held your gaze

the noise died down.

The noise of missed calls.

Noise of empty words.

Noise of shutters closing

at daylight.

And you know nothing about me

and I know nothing about you.

You don't know what I want.

You don't know how I think.

If it's only me or if we're a thousand.

You don't know whom I sleep with.

You appeared out of nowhere

like a burst of light.

When I held your gaze

the noise died down.

Noise.

If I'm from the southern hemisphere

or if I came from the north.

If I'm plummeting

or staying afloat.

You don't know what to expect from me

nor how to pronounce my name.

You appeared out of nowhere

like a burst of light.

When I held your gaze

the noise died down.

Now time is relative.

It stands still for us both.

You and I have survived

so much noise.

Noise.
