Solo Le Pido A Dios
Luciano Pereyra
I Only Ask of God
I only ask of God
that pain not leave me indifferent,
that dry death not find me
empty and alone without having done enough.
I only ask of God
that injustice not leave me indifferent,
that they don't slap my other cheek
after a claw scratched this fate.
I only ask of God
that war not leave me indifferent,
it's a big monster and steps heavily
on all the poor innocence of the people.
I only ask of God
that deceit not leave me indifferent
if a traitor can do more than a few,
may those few not easily forget.
I only ask of God
that the future not leave me indifferent,
doomed is the one who has to leave
to live a different culture.
I only ask of God
that war not leave me indifferent,
it's a big monster and steps heavily
on all the poor innocence of the people.
