Lyrics

Translation

Estamos ciegos de ver,

We are blind from seeing,

Cansados de tanto andar.

Tired from so much walking.

Estamos hartos de huir

We are fed up with running

En la ciudad.

In the city.


Nunca tendremos raíz,

We will never have roots,

Nunca tendremos hogar,

We will never have a home,

Y sin embargo ya ves:

And yet, you see:

Somos de acá.

We are from here.


Vibramos como las campanas,

We vibrate like bells,

Como iglesias que se acercan desde el sur,

Like churches approaching from the south,

Como vestidos negros que se quieren desvestir.

Like black dresses that want to undress.


Yo siempre te he llevado

I have always carried you,

Bajo mi bufanda azul,

Under my blue scarf,

Por las calles como cristo a la cruz.

Through the streets like Christ to the cross.
