Canción de Cuna
Susana Harp
Lullaby
Forge the iron
Shape the bread
Or the smell of the hill will cover you
From this brutal world
What will be your dream?
Which ports will you touch?
Which woman, which friends will share
Your joy with your salt?
Sleep, child
Don't cry anymore
Sleep peacefully
Mom will take care of you
Sleep, child
Don't cry anymore
The seashells
And the sea will lull you
What will be your creed?
With whom will you commune?
Teaching you to love will serve you
In a brutal world
What will be your dream?
Which ports will you touch?
Which woman, which friends will share
Your joy with your salt?
Sleep, child
Don't cry anymore
Sleep peacefully
Mom will take care of you
Sleep, child
Don't cry anymore
The seashells
And the sea will lull you
