America

From America I am
From America I am

Being born in America is like a blessing
Land of beautiful images that gladden the heart
Mosaic of a thousand colors
Beautiful women and flowers
For the peoples of America, I sing my song

(From America) And look at the color of the land where I was born
(I am) And because my language is Spanish
(From America) In the United States, they say I'm Latino
(I am) But they don't want to say I'm an American

(From America) I am the gaucho who gallops through the pampas
(I am) I am also a Charrua, a Hivalutuman
(From America) I am also a Chapino, an Eskimo, a Mayan prince
(I am) I am also a Guajiro, a Mexican cowboy

(From America) The one born in Europe is European
(I am) And the one born in Africa is called African
(From America) But whoever is born in America and I don't see
(I am) Why the hell shouldn't they be American

(From America) America is the whole continent
(I am) And the one born here is an American
(From America) But look, the color may be different
(I am) But in God's eyes, we are all brothers

From Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, and Paraguay
Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, El Salvador, and Uruguay
Venezuela and Guatemala, Mexico, Cuba, and the Bahamas
Everyone is American, regardless of color
