Fundamento Coplero
Tu eres rico, tu eres pobre
Tu eres mando, tu jornal
Tu eres lo que tu no eres
La copla de quien sera?
Tu eres rico, tu eres pobre
Tu eres el que quitas, tu el que da
Tu tiras lo que tu debes
La copla de quien sera?
Tu eres rico, tu eres pobre
Tu eres oro, tu eres pan
Por ti se mata la gente
La copla de quien sera?
Aqui estoy, puedo y soy
Puedo vertirme en la copla
Soy donde voy
La copla viene de lejos
Boca del tiempo tal vez
Sabe de las cosas buenas
Y de las malas tambien
Sabe del rico y su suerte
Del cesar sabe su ley
Pero por sobre las cosas
Sabe del pueblo y su fe
Sabe del pobre y su lucha
Del miedo sabe su hiel
Sabe que el niño no sabe
Que el hambre tiene un porque
Aqui estoy, puedo y soy
Puedo partirme en la copla
Soy donde voy.
Foundational Copla
You're rich, you're poor
You're in charge, you're wages
You are what you are not
Whose copla will it be?
You're rich, you're poor
You're the one who takes, you're the one who gives
You throw away what you owe
Whose copla will it be?
You're rich, you're poor
You're gold, you're bread
For you, people are killed
Whose copla will it be?
Here I am, I can and I am
I can transform into the copla
I am where I go
The copla comes from afar
Mouth of time perhaps
It knows about the good things
And the bad ones too
It knows about the rich and their luck
It knows Caesar's law
But above all things
It knows about the people and their faith
It knows about the poor and their struggle
It knows the fear in their bile
It knows that the child doesn't know
That hunger has a reason
Here I am, I can and I am
I can break into the copla
I am where I go.
