it refers to the way the dead were buried in latinamerica a long time ago... does anyone know how they call it in English?... pease avoid answers like "mud vessel" or the like, unless you are certain that´s the way it is translated. But if you have any poethic suggestions, they are more than welcome... Thanks

Si, es precisamente a esa canción a la que se refiere. Esta traducción es para Ecuador. Saludos y Gracias! |

Heidi C
: ¡exacto! "urn" es lo que se usa para referirse a lo funerario, y "clay" es para barro. ¿La canción es la de "quiero que a mí me entierren..."? :)

funerary urn
Tambien puede ser las primeras respuestas. 'Funerary' es un poco más específico.

urn of clay
and here is my poetic rendition (can't resist a challenge for a rhyme):
my destiny holds but a promise at the break of the day
waiting for me at the end of the road is an urn made of clay...

earthen vessel
The other answers proposed are correct, but this has a poetic touch, and the added advantage of being the biblical equivalent of "vasija de barro."

Note from asker:
Yes, an earthen vessel was the term used for biblical translations, but this one comes from Latinamerica, and it is for burying the dead. Thank you... |
