i spliced one of my favorite youtubers video and added this great song. you can call it a dual tribute. hope you like it. oh yeah, lyrics are here:

Una palabra no dice nada
y al mismo tiempo lo esconde todo
igual que el viento que esconde el agua
como las flores que esconde el lodo.

Una mirada no dice nada
y al mismo tiempo lo dice todo
como la lluvia sobre tu cara
o el viejo mapa de algun tesoro.

Una verdad no dice nada
y al mismo tiempo lo esconde todo
como una hoguera que no se apaga
como una piedra que nace polvo.

Si un dia me faltas no sere nada
y al mismo tiempo lo sere todo
porque en tus ojos estan mis alas
y esta la orilla donde me ahogo,
porque en tus ojos estan mis alas
y esta la orilla donde me ahogo.

________________________________
Translation

A word does not say anything
And at the same time it hides everything
Just as the wind that hides the water
Like the flowers that mud hides.

A glance does not say anything
And at the same time it says everything
Like rain on your face
Or an old treasure map

A truth does not say anything
And at the same time it hides everything
Like a bonfire that does not go out
Like a stone that is born dust.

If one day you need me, I will be nothing
And at the same time I will be everything
Because in your eyes are my wings
And the shore where I drown,
Because in your eyes are my wings
And the shore where I drown

  • Amigo no sabes cuanto lamento que tu esposa haya fallecido. Realmente es muy triste. Aunque debe ser una forma muy fea de recordarla, justamente con este video y la canción que haz elegido. Realmente mi sentido pésame, y que dios sepa cuidar de ella. Saludos y suerte

  • @kakunchi jjjja y ami tan bn

  • Guys, what are you babbling about? You're missing the point I think :) It's about feelings, not disecting language... Even poetry steps aside for life, don't be too serious.

  • se pasan de verga tan chida cancion y ese pinche video ororosooooo vale pa pura vergaaaa

  • fornicala y ya...

  • @infinitelink All I said was that "si un dia me faltas" does not mean "if one day you are missing me". So your comment does not make any sense as a reply. I´m aware of the multiple meanings of faltar, among other reasons, because I am form Spain and spanish is my first language. Saludos.

  • tal vez este video complementó la tristeza y soledad de esta espectacular cancion

  • @ericktm The me is objective, not nominative. Meaning the "faltas" is a transitive, not intransitive verb; i.e. that means "faltar" here has to do with feeling of lack, need, etc., TOWARDS someone or something else, rather than ceasing to exist or disappearing from someone's life.

  • @drkarnov Actually faltar means a lot more than that, having many senses and used with much nuance of significances possible; only beginners (not just in Spanish, but in learning and understanding languages generally) think words are so restricted.

  • @tadeysopoloop JAJAJAJAJAJA EXCELENTE COMENTARIO
