Lyrics
Necesito que me escuches un momento
Compañero de fatigas y de azar
Eres alguien que quiero y que respeto
Y agredezco tu tiempo y tu amistad
He roto el silencio de las hojas
Con un lapiz que me ha abierto en canal…
Aunque parece que ser sincero asusta
Y por eso te vengo a preguntar
Para llegar, he de ser leal
Para llegar, he de continuar
Para llegar, he de ser capaz
De convertir el sueño
Con la antorcha en realidad
Para ganar, he de ser leal
Para ganar, he de continuar
Para ganar, ¿de que sirve ganar?
Si no ganan conmigo
Los que vienen detras
He soñado como Martin Luther King
Que viviamos juntos en un gran pais
Con hombres y mujeres orgullosos
De la carrera de principio al fin
Y volviendo la pagina del tiempo
Me he encontrado con un vendaval
De pasiones que matan en silencio
Y organizan la derrota de la paz
Lyrics translation
I need you to listen to me for a moment.
Companion of fatigue and Chance
You're someone I love and respect
And I Assault your time and your friendship
I've broken the silence of the leaves
With a pencil that opened me in canal…
Although it seems that being honest scares
And that's why I came to ask you
To get there, I must be loyal
To get there, I have to continue
To get there, I have to be able
To convert the dream
With the torch actually
To win, I must be loyal
To win, I must continue
To win, what good is winning?
If you don't win with me
The ones behind
I've dreamed of Martin Luther King
That we lived together in a great country
With proud men and women
From start to finish
And turning the page of time
I've encountered a gale
Of passions that kill in silence
And organize the defeat of peace
