Mirando Al Mar

Alone in this cell, in this cold prison
Condemned by strangers I await my execution
I know that today I will die looking at the sea
They didn't give me a trial, it wasn't necessary to speak
A stranger in their land, the mortal enemy
I know that today I will die looking at the sea
I know that today I will die looking at the sea

Far, very far, beyond the wide sea
There is a land that I call my home
And I know that no... no, no, no
I will never return
And I know that no... no, no, no
The future ends with this sunrise

I think of the men who send us to fight
For gold and lands that the people will never have
And I know that no... no, no, no
It's not fair that I should die
And I know that no... no, no, no
But I am a soldier and this is what I chose

Let me gaze at the sun
It will be the last time I feel its warmth
Kill me looking towards the sea
So my soul will know how to return

I will try to lose myself where dreams are born
Perhaps then all the pain I feel will be foreign to me
Far, very far, I will hear guns firing
And a voice inside me screams that I must fly...

(Alone)

I look at the jailer, my time is up
I search among them for the one who commands the firing squad
And I ask him...

Let me gaze at the sun
It will be the last time I feel its warmth
Kill me looking towards the sea
So my soul will know how to return

Let me gaze at the sun
It will be the last time I feel its warmth
Far, very far, I will hear guns firing
And a voice inside me screams that I must fly...
Fly...
Fly...
Fly...
