Valiente
Jarabe de Palo
Brave
I've seen whales blowing in my bathtub
Peg-legged pirate sailing in the fish tank
Dolphins and mermaids humming a rock 'n' roll
But never anyone as brave as you
I've seen superheroes flying on their bicycles
Lead soldiers dancing with puppets
Indians against cowboys in a soccer match
But never anyone as brave as you
You have the strength of a lion, you are fire, dynamite
You have courage, toughness, spirit, wisdom
The cunning, the beauty of a black panther
That at night can see what others can't during the day
You are lead, strong, fine cinnamon, brave
Like those who, day by day, go down to dig in the mine
Like the tightrope walker who flies over the abyss
And bare, without a net, defies gravity
I've seen giants swinging in the sky
The Berlin Wall falling into a thousand pieces on the ground
Landscapes so beautiful, that only exist in fairy tales
But never anyone as brave as you
I've seen Eskimos sunbathing in the desert
Palm tree oases in Siberia in the dead of winter
Martians and astronauts at the Pluto fair
But never anyone as brave as you
The hardness of a diamond, the beauty of a nymph
You have claw, power, magic, nobility, empathy
The gaze of a poker champion in sight
Who in a single hand plays the game
I love you, even if I never get to know you
I adore you, even if I never see you again
Don't stop, move forward, always look ahead
For me and for the world, you are someone important
The strength of a lion, you are fire, dynamite
You have courage, toughness, spirit, wisdom
The cunning, the beauty of a black panther
That at night can see what others can't during the day
You are lead, strong, fine cinnamon, brave
Like those who, day by day, go down to dig in the mine
Like the tightrope walker who flies over the abyss
And bare, without a net, defies gravity
