El Tambor

When the heat crushes your impatient soul
When helplessness makes you grit your teeth
Laguna Pai brings you a mindful moment here
Playing on the radio, accompanying the people

Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound

When the heat warms the clay paths
Without trees, the forest no longer has life
Desires and whims of a bandit race
Tilt the balance and send us falling, eh

Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound

Let the rivers sound
Let the waves of the sea sound
A new challenge
Relearn to listen
And with our hands
Mend our mistake
Together as brothers
Find the balance, hey

Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound

No, our politics have become ambidextrous
While the right and left fight
What is truly at risk are the rivers, the jungle
But the media talk about any other topic, hey

Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the rivers sound

Let the waves of the sea sound
A new challenge
Relearn to listen
And with our hands
Mend our mistake
Together as brothers
Find the balance, hey

Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound
Let the drum sound

Let the drum sound
Let life sound
Let love sound
Let the drum sound
And let life sound
Let love sound
Let it sound, let it sound, let it sound, let it sound
Let it sound, life and love and let your heart sound
And it says
Let it sound, let it sound, let it sound, let it sound
Let love sound, let your voice sound
