Translation of the song lyrics Hoy No Le Temo A La Muerte - La Portuaria, David Byrne

Hoy No Le Temo A La Muerte (original)

Hoy no le temo a la muerte,
no se que fue que me lo quitó
No se si fueron tus besos,
o tal ves fue una canción
Everything I own, I paid for that,
I got the way all my possessions
And don t want catch me sleeping
when they tell my the train is coming
Yo ya pague mis deudas,
mas no quiero tener
Y Quiero estar despierto
cuando me digan que viene el tren
Hoy no le temo a la muerte,
no se que fue que me lo quitó
No se si fueron tus besos,
o tal ves fue una canción
I m not afraid, to cross the river
I m not afraid, to pass on over
I jump over, jump over the fire
To tell not afraid of dieing
Ay mamasita hoy yo crucé sin miedo del puente
que pasa por sobre el rió
Ay mamita hoy yo salte la soga
Y me tire solo del tobogán
I m not afraid of dieing,
Hoy no le temo a la muerte
Today is soundenly happend,
No se que fue que me lo quito
It could be your kisses,
no se si fueron tus besos
O tal vez fue una canción.

(translation)

Today I am not afraid of death,
I don't know what it was that took it from me
I don't know if it was your kisses,
or maybe it was a song
Everything I own, I paid for that,
I got the way all my possessions
And don't want to catch me sleeping
when they tell my the train is coming
I already paid my debts,
but I don't want to have
And I want to be awake
when they tell me the train is coming
Today I am not afraid of death,
I don't know what it was that took it from me
I don't know if it was your kisses,
or maybe it was a song
I'm not afraid, to cross the river
I'm not afraid, to pass on over
I jump over, jump over the fire
To tell not afraid of dying
Oh mamasita today I crossed the bridge without fear
what passes over the river
Oh mamita today I jumped the rope
And I threw myself off the slide
I'm not afraid of dying,
Today I am not afraid of death
Today is soundly happend,
I don't know what it was that I took it off
It could be your kisses,
I don't know if it was your kisses
Or maybe it was a song.
