Lyrics and translation
Original
Cuando se migra, inicialmente la casa es un colchón donde descansar y queda bastante lejos del calor de hogar de mamá.
José Luis se ha vuelto uno más en esa estadística de personas compartiendo logros por medio de un teléfono celular.
Mientras conversa con una pantalla de por medio, José Luis finge, actúa, engaña.
No por maldad, sino por cuidar el corazón de aquellos que lo quieren y lo extrañan.
La distancia se vuelve cruel cuando cae el peso real de la ausencia del ser.
Pero fingir se ha vuelto fácil para él y esboza una sonrisa que alienta a aquellos que lo ven a kilómetros de distancia.
Las llamadas son cortas para no dar excusas a la realidad.
Cada vez que cuelga lo acompaña un suspiro que no siempre lo abraza, pero sigue fiel a su lucha.
Poco a poco va descubriendo cuál es la historia que él quiere contar.
English translation
When you migrate, initially the house is a mattress to rest on and it is quite far from the warmth of your mother's home.
José Luis has become one more in that statistic of people sharing achievements through a cell phone.
While conversing with a screen in between, José Luis pretends, acts, deceives.
Not out of malice, but to care for the hearts of those who love him and miss him.
Distance becomes cruel when the real weight of the absence of being falls.
But pretending has become easy for him and he cracks a smile that encourages those who see him from miles away.
The calls are short so as not to make excuses for reality.
Every time he hangs up he is accompanied by a sigh that does not always embrace him, but remains faithful to his fight.
Little by little he discovers what story he wants to tell.
