Cuidemos de Nuestros Hijos

Los Carabajal's song "Cuidemos de Nuestros Hijos" is a heartfelt plea to humanity to protect and nurture the younger generation. The lyrics reflect a deep concern for the state of the world and the impact of human actions on the fragile environment. The song opens with a rhetorical question about human behavior, highlighting the delicate nature of the world, which is metaphorically described as a 'fragile creature.' This sets the tone for the song's central message: the importance of consciousness and peace in our actions.

The song emphasizes the innocence and potential of children, comparing them to a 'green apple' and a 'patio de ronda' (a playground). These metaphors evoke images of purity, growth, and the joy of childhood. The lyrics call for the protection of children from the harms of violence, drugs, and fear, portraying them as the 'fresh sap' of a new day. This imagery underscores the idea that children are the future and that their well-being is crucial for a better world.

Los Carabajal also criticize the destructive ambitions of adults, which corrupt their senses and cloud their judgment. The song contrasts this with the pure and imaginative world of children, depicted through vivid imagery of children flying on 'cloud horses' and 'red fire colts.' The repeated plea to 'care for our children' serves as a reminder that the future is in our hands and that we must act responsibly to ensure a peaceful and prosperous world for the next generation.
