Nada es para siempre en la tierra:

Sólo un poco aquí.

Aunque sea de jade se quiebra,

Aunque sea de oro se rompe,

Aunque sea plumaje de quetzal se desgarra.

No para siempre en la tierra:

Sólo un poco aquí.

Nothing is forever on this earth

We are here for just a short time

Even things made of jade crack

Even things made of gold break

Even the feathers of the quetzal can be torn apart

We are not forever on this earth

We are here for just a short time
