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