Mexico, 2020

A man standing on a sandy dune surrounded by green shrubs under a partly cloudy sky.
A man with gray hair and beard holding a woman with curly hair close, both smiling, outdoors with rocks in the background.

Cuando tú te quedes muda,
cuando yo me quede ciego,
nos quedarán las manos
y el silencio.

A woman shows off an engagement ring on her finger as she hugs a smiling man from behind.
A man lifts a woman on a beach, both smiling and looking at each other, with an overcast sky in the background.

Cuando tú te pongas vieja,
cuando yo me ponga viejo,
nos quedarán los labios y el silencio;

Cuando tú te quedes muerta,
cuando yo me quede muerto,
tendrán que enterrarnos juntos en silencio;

Close-up of calm ocean water meeting the sandy shoreline.
A close-up of a smiling man with gray hair and a beard and a smiling woman with dark hair, both showing their teeth and nose to nose, against a white sky background.
A joyful couple smiling at the beach, with rocks and cloudy sky in the background. The woman is hugging the man from behind.
An orange butterfly perched on a green plant with needle-like leaves and small white flowers.

Y cuando tú resucites,
cuando yo viva de nuevo,
nos volveremos a amar en silencio.

A couple smiling and embracing each other outdoors against a cloudy sky, facing each other with noses touching.

Y cuando todo se acabe
para siempre en el universo,
será un silencio de amor,
el silencio.”
