Papel Volantín

Here I bring you a kite
For you to raise it and let your sorrow fly
Here I bring you written on kite paper
A poem that says I want to see you again
To see you smile

And it's a lie that you can't travel through time
And that you can be children more than once
And that love is as strong as the wind
And sadness as fragile as a kite

Be a child again with me
Smile again
Let your sorrow fly with the kite

Be a child again with me
Smile again
Let your sorrow fly

And now that we are children again
Let's get on the kite
Let's fly over the map
The map they call a country
And let's transform it all
Because we are children again

And let's turn the base paste into a stew
And let's turn every McDonald's into a traditional party
And let's turn every courthouse into a cinema
And let's turn every club into a gathering
And let's turn every police van into a carnival float
Saying we are going to celebrate a new constitution
On kite paper

Be a child again with me
Smile again
Let your sorrow fly with the kite

Be a child again with me
Smile again
Let your sorrow fly

And let everyone become children with us
Let Chile learn to read and write again
And let me dry your tears
And you dry my tears
Let Chile dry its tears
With kite paper
