A Vos Ciudad
Sandra Mihanovich
To You, City
To you, city
Today I sing to you now
And I want to grow in you
And take root
That are long
And encompass you
That wrap around you
And squeeze you
Embrace us and caress us
And tie us together
To you, city
I want to claim you
Before this world
Because you are all the strength
In my guts
All the yearning
That I found on that night
And the love that made me smile
That early morning
To you, city
To you who are
A sophisticated boutique
The neighborhood I haven't known
A low blow
A welcome springboard
That always brings me back
To you, city
To you whom I love so much
To you, I sing
To you, city
Today I stand here now
To learn the dialect
Of my people
And vibrating with the feeling
That I am so yours
