The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Cinco Siglos Igual" by Leon Gieco.
Lyrics
Soledad sobre ruinas, sangre en el trigo
Rojo y amarillo, manantial del veneno
Escudo heridas, cinco siglos igual
Libertad sin galope, banderas rotas
Soberbia y mentiras, medallas de oro y plata
Contra esperanza, cinco siglos igual
En esta parte de la tierra la historia se o se caen las piedras aun las que
tocan el cielo
O estan cerca del sol o estan cerca del sol
Desamor desencuentro, perdon y olvido
Cuerpo con mineral, pueblos trabajadores
Infancias pobres, cinco siglos igual
Lealtad sobre tumbas, piedra sagrada
Dios no alcanzo a llorar, sueño largo del mal
Hijos de nadie, cinco siglos igual
Muerte contra la vida, gloria de un pueblo
Desaparecido es comienzo, es final
Leyenda perdida, cinco siglos igual
En esta parte de la tierra la historia se cayo
Como se caen las piedras aun las que tocan el cielo
O estan cerca del sol o estan cerca del sol
Es tinieblas con flores, revoluciones
Y aunque muchos no estan, nunca nadie penso
Besarte los pies, cinco siglos igual
Lyrics translation
Loneliness on ruins, blood on wheat
Red and yellow, Poison Spring
Shield wounds, five centuries equal
Freedom without galloping, broken flags
Pride and lies, gold and silver medals
Against hope, five centuries equal
In this part of the Earth history is or fall stones even those that
they touch the sky
Either they're near the sun or they're near the sun
Disillusionment, forgiveness and forgetfulness
Body with mineral, working peoples
Poor children, five centuries equal
Loyalty over tombs, sacred stone
God can't cry, long dream of evil
Children of no man, five centuries equal
Death against life, glory of a people
Gone is beginning, is end
Lost Legend, five centuries the same
In this part of the Earth history fell
How stones fall even those that touch the sky
Either they're near the sun or they're near the sun
It's darkness with flowers, revolutions
And although many are not, no one ever thought
Kiss your feet, five centuries the same
