It's Albacete

Es Albacete

It's AlbaceteEs Albacete
The city where I was bornLa ciudad donde nací
Where you leave cryingDe la que te vas llorando
That you miss so muchA la que se extraña tanto
Where I want to dieDonde yo quiero morir
The place my grandparents lovedLa que amaron mis abuelos
It's my beacon, my rootsEs mi faro, mi matriz
The folk songs of my motherLas joticas de mi madre
The knife of my fatherLas navaja de mi padre
That cuts through everythingEsa que lo corta todo
Everything but my rootsTodo menos mi raíz

It's AlbaceteEs Albacete
Land of hills and plainsTierra de sierras y llanos
Where you'll make good friendsDonde harás buenos amigos
Because it's a crossroadsPorque es cruce de caminos
But it's not just a pit stopPero no es rincón de paso
