La Mano De Dios
Walter Olmos
The Hand of God
In a small town he was born
It was God's wish
To grow and survive
In humble surroundings
To face adversity
With the drive to win
At every step of life.
In a field he forged
An immortal left foot
With experience
Thirsty for ambition to succeed
From Cebollita he dreamed of playing in the World Cup and making it big
Maybe playing he could
Help his family out.
Just when he debuted
Maradona Maradona
The fans were the ones who sang
Maradona Maradona
His dream had a star
Full of goals and flair.
And the whole town sang
Maradona Maradona
The hand of God was born
Maradona Maradona
He brought joy to the town
He spread glory on this ground.
Quartet time!
With a weight on his shoulders
For being the best
For never selling out
He faced the power
Curious weakness
If Jesus stumbled
Why wouldn’t he?
Fame introduced him
To a white woman
Of mysterious taste
And forbidden pleasure
It was his usual desire
To use her once more
Involving his life
And it’s a match that one day
Diego is about to win.
Just when he debuted...
And the whole town sang...
Ole ole ole Diego (repeat)
Just when he debuted...
And the whole town sang...
He spread glory on this ground (repeat)
I love you Diego.
