The song "A Dios Le Pido" by Juanes is a prayer to God asking for various things, such as waking up with the light of a loved one's gaze, for his parents to live a long life and remember him, for his loved one to stay by his side forever, for his soul to never rest when it comes to loving, for his people to stop shedding so much blood and rise up, for more time to give his heart completely, and for God to grant him a death in love and to always be in love with his partner. The song emphasizes the importance of love and relationships, both with loved ones and with the community.

That my eyes wake up

With the light of your gaze

That my mother doesn't die

And may my father remember me

That you stay by my side

And never leave me, my love

That my soul doesn't rest

When it comes to loving you, my heaven

For the days that I have left

And the nights that have not yet arrived

For the children of my children

And the children of your children

That my people don't shed so much blood

And my people get up

That my soul doesn't rest

When it comes to loving you, my heaven

Prechorus 1

One more second of life to give you

And to give you my whole heart

One more second of life to give you

And to stay by your side forever

One more second of life I

I ask to God

Chorus 1

That if I die, it's from love

And if I fall in love, let it be with you

And let this heart belong to your voice

Every day, I ask God

That if I die, it's from love

And if I fall in love, let it be with you

And let this heart belong to your voice

Every day I ask God

I ask to God

Verse 2

That my eyes wake up

With the light of your gaze

And never leave me again, my love

That my soul doesn't rest

When it comes to loving you, my heaven

Prechorus 2

One more second of life to give you

And to give you my whole heart

One more second of life to give you

And to stay by your side forever

One more second of life I

I ask to God

Chorus 2

That if I die, it's from love

And if I fall in love, let it be with you

And if I fall in love, let it be with you

And let this heart belong to your voice

Every day I ask God

That if I die, it's from love

And if I fall in love, let it be with you

And let this heart belong to your voice

And if I fall in love, let it be with you

And let this heart belong to your voice

Every day I ask God

I ask to God
