Lyrics
Abre sendas por los cerros,
deja su huella en el viento,
el águila le da el vuelo
y lo cobija el silencio.
Nunca se quejódel frío,
nunca se quejódel sueño,
el pobre siente su paso
y lo sigue como ciego.
Correlé, correlé, correlá
por aquí, por allí, por allá,
correlé, correlé, correlá,
correléque te van a matar,
correlé, correlé, correlá.
Su cabeza es rematada
por cuervos con garra de oro
como lo ha crucificado
la furia del poderoso.
Hijo de la rebeldía
lo siguen veinte más veinte,
porque regala su vida
ellos le quieren dar muerte.
Lyrics translation
Open paths through the hills,
leaves its mark in the wind,
the Eagle gives him the flight
and it's covered by silence.
Never complain about the cold,
never complain about the dream,
the poor man feels his step
and he follows him like a blind man.
Correlé, correlé, correlá
this way, that way, that way,
correlé, correlé, correlá,
corlel that you will be killed,
correlé, correlé, correlá.
His head is finished
by crows with Golden Claws
how he crucified him
the fury of the mighty.
Son of rebellion
follow him twenty plus twenty,
because he gives his life away
they want to kill him.
