Que dificil cantarle a tierra madre
How difficult to sing to Mother Earth
Que nos aguanta y nos vio crecer
Who withstands us and saw us grow
Y a los padres de tus padres
And to the parents of your parents
Y a tus hijos los que vendrán despues
And to your children, those who will come after
Si la miras como a tu mama
If you look at her like your mother
Quizas nos cambie la mirada
Perhaps our perspective will change
Y actuemos como el que defiende a los tuyos
And we act like those who defend their own
Y a los que vienen con el
And those who come with them
La raiz en mis pies yo sentí
The root in my feet I felt
Levante la mano y ví
I raised my hand and saw
Que todo va unido, que todo es un ciclo
That everything is connected, that everything is a cycle
La tierra, el cielo y de nuevo aqui
The earth, the sky, and back here again
Como el agua del mar a las nubes va
Like the sea water to the clouds goes
Llueve el agua y vuelta a empezar, oye I yee
The water rains, and it starts again, listen I yee
Grite, grite o no lo ves?
Scream, scream, can't you see?
Va muriendo lentamente, mama tierra, mother earth
It's dying slowly, Mother Earth, mother earth
Grite, grite o no lo ves?
Scream, scream, can't you see?
Va muriendo lentamente, mama tierra, mother earth
It's dying slowly, Mother Earth, mother earth
No se trata de romper ventanas
It's not about breaking windows
Ni farolas ni de cara
Or lampposts or faces
Mejor romper conciencias equivocadas oye
It's better to break misguided consciences, hey
Nadie nos enseñó ni a ti ni a mi
No one taught us, neither you nor me
Nadie nos explicó ni a ti ni a mí
No one explained to us, neither you nor me
Mejor aprender, que corra la voz y quizás conseguir
It's better to learn, let the word spread and perhaps achieve
