Quien Va a Cantar
Ruben Rada
Who Will Sing
When all poetry is lost
When people only survive
When tiredness kills joy
We will be a working machine
If they globalize our thinking
There will only be one book with the same story
Without that magic of fantasy
The world's music will have no place
I ask, who will sing?
Who will dream?
Who will play the melody of love?
Who will sing?
Who will dream?
Who will ask for the singer not to be silenced?
If every town has a president
Who at least rhymes with the people
When distribution is more coherent
We will have a planet with identity
When love is the most urgent
The war in the east will be pointless
When racism has no relative
I will feel proud of humanity
Who will sing?
Who will dream?
Who will play the melody of love?
Who will sing?
Who will dream?
Who will ask for the singer not to be silenced?
