Lyrics
Quien me ayudaria
A desarmar tu historia antigua
Y a pedazos volverte a conquistar
Una ciudad quiero tener
Para todos construida
Y que alimente a quien la quiera habitar
Santiago, no has querido ser el centro
Y tu nunca has conocido el mar
Como seran ahora tus calles
Si te robaron las noches
En mi ciudad murio un dia
El sol de primavera
A mi ventana me fueron a avisar
Anda, toma tu guitarra
Tu voz sera de todos los que un dia
Tuvieron algo que contar
Golpeare mil puertas
Preguntando por tus dias
Si responden aprendera a cantar
Recorreremos tu alegria
Desde el cerro a tus mejillas
Y de ahi saldra un verso a mi ciudad
Santiago, quiero verte enamorado
Y a tu habitante mostrarte sin temor
En tus calles sentiras mi paso firme
Y sabre de quien respira a mi lado
En mi ciudad…
Canta, es mejor si vienes
Tu voz hace falta
Quiero verte en mi ciudad (bis)
En mi ciudad…
Lyrics translation
Who would help me
To disarm your ancient history
And to pieces conquer you again
A city I want to have
For all built
And feed those who want to inhabit it
Santiago, you didn't want to be the center
And you've never known the sea
What your streets will be like now
If your nights were stolen
In my city he died one day
The spring sun
They went to my window to warn me
Come on, get your guitar.
Your voice will be of all who one day
They had something to tell.
I'll knock a thousand doors
Asking about your days
If they answer, I'll learn to sing.
We'll resort to your joy
From the hill to your cheeks
And from there will come a verse to my city
Santiago, I want to see you in love
And to your inhabitant to show you without fear
In your streets you will feel my steady step
And I'll know who's breathing next to me
In my city…
Sing, it's better if you come
Your voice is needed
I want to see you in my city (bis)
In my city…
