Translation Notes

↑ The title is Spanish for ‘Angel’, and I think it’s safe to say that the angel plays a major role in this song. I think the song is told from the angel’s perspective at some parts, and switches to the people (or person) they are observing at others, which influenced how I approached the translation. It’s an interesting yet inscrutable song, and it would be great to hear what people think of it!

I think the key observation from the angel is that, though humans have limited lifespans, they are happy for as long as they live.
