Cruz de Sal
Aterciopelados
Salt Cross
Today I wake up prepared
I slept well, I dreamt that I was flying
I'm going to make a salt cross
To make sure it's not going to rain today
May it not take away
The raging river in its current
Everything it finds, everything it finds
Everything that stands in its way
Today I feel optimistic
Like after a storm
But still, I'm waiting for the next one
Because we're in winter, rains and landslides
Flood
May it not take away
The raging river in its current
Everything it finds, everything it finds
Everything that stands in its way
It's Mother Nature
The mistreated Pachamama
Who complains, who complains, who complains
The promised land of my race profaned
That shudders with pain
When its children pollute it, deforest it, sterilize it, heat it up, industrialize it
May it not take away...
