Lyrics
Y Al fin de casi todo
Mi barca vagabunda
Mecida por las olas
Con fuerza me arrastró
La isla misteriosa
La que soñamos todos
Parece que te invita
A entrar en su interior
Youkali es el país que alguien soñó
Youkali es donde se inventó el color
Youkali en su frontera se detuvo el dolor
En la oscuridad es rayo de luz
La estrella a seguir, Youkali
Es lo mejor que guardamos en el corazón
La libertad que soñaste tanto acariciar
Es tan real como soñar
No existe tal Youkali
Y la vida nos lleva, cansada, cotidiana
Por un valle de lágrimas
Que no deja escapar
Dejándonos el alma
Por todos los rincones
Dejándonos jirones
Soñando por soñar
Lyrics translation
And at the end of almost everything
My Tramp boat
Rocked by the waves
He dragged me hard
The mysterious island
The one we all dream about
Looks like he's inviting you.
To get inside
Youkali is the country someone dreamed of
Youkali is where color was invented
Youkali on his border stopped the pain
In the dark it is ray of light
The star to follow, Youkali
It's the best thing we keep in our hearts
The freedom you dreamed so much to caress
It's as real as dreaming
There is no such Youkali
And life takes us, tired, everyday
Through a valley of tears
That doesn't let go
Leaving us the soul
In every corner
Leaving us tattered
Dreaming for dreaming
