Heaven Welcomed Ana Daniela

She left her town one Sunday, sun shone on Altamirano

With a backpack on her shoulder and a dream held in each hand

From Guerrero to the UNAM, to fulfill her destiny

Studying among the textbooks, tracing out her destiny

She rode a taxi heading east, through the streets of Iztapalapa

La Concordia bore witness to a fading afternoon

A gas tanker roared, the sky burst into flames

And the silence became eternal as the fire consumed her

And I sing to the wind, looking towards the Balsas River

'Cause in every wave, I hear your voice that still echoes

Her boyfriend, so heartbroken, wrote these very words

You'll always be my soul, my girl from Guerrero

You didn't just brighten my days you made my whole world brighter

Her parents searched the hospitals all across the city

Praying through their sobs to hold her once again

A paramedic found a piece of her worn-out wallet

And called her parents, with a tremble, with a voice so true

The students, they are crying, her name upon a candle

The UNAM keeps her story, and her smile so sincere

And back home in the savanna, they still recall her gaze

The girl with all the dreams, whose love still lights the way

And I sing to the wind, looking towards the Balsas River

'Cause in every wave, I hear your voice that still echoes

Her boyfriend, so heartbroken, wrote these very words

You'll always be my soul, my girl from Guerrero

You didn't just brighten my days

Ciudad Altamirano, passionate land of desire

Where the sun burns so fiercely, but the soul learns to rise

Now she flies through the heavens, past the gas and the pain

Leaving her light still burning in every love song's refrain

And I sing to the wind, looking towards the Balsas River

'Cause in every wave, I hear your voice that still echoes!

Her boyfriend, so heartbroken, wrote these very words

You'll always be my soul, my girl from Guerrero

You didn't just brighten my days you made my whole world brighter!

There in the Guerrero sky your banner's flying on

'Cause a love that is this real never dies, it's never gone
