As que nunca cantaron

Those Who Never Sang

As que nunca cantaron

They sent us for salvationMandáronnos a salvación
On ships with echoes of their songsEn carabelas con ecos das súas cancións
They gave us a missionMandáronnos unha misión
Of leather skin and brass caressesDe pel de coiro e caricias de latón

We made the drift dreamlikeFixemos onírica a deriva
We wrote them an ode to painEscribímoslles unha oda á dor

The ones who wanted to silence us screamBerran os que querían calar
The ones who never sang are singingCantan os que nunca cantaron
The ones who can’t take it anymore are dancingBailan os que non poden máis-e
The ones who wanted to sing are singingCantan os que querían cantar
The ones who always screamed are shoutingBerran os que sempre berraron
The ones who break the ground are dancingBailan os que rompen co chan-e

Aialelalelalé, aialelalelaléAialelalelalé, aialelalelalé
Aialelalelalelá, aialelalelaleláAialelalelalelá, aialelalelalelá

The sound we bringO son que nós traemos
Didn’t come from the starsNon nos chegou das estrelas
It came from the voices, motherChegounos das voces, madre
From those who carve the stoneDas que esculpen a pedra
From those who carve the stoneDas que esculpen a pedra

They came to us, motherChegáronnos, madre
They came to us fullChegáronnos cheas
Of truthDe verdade
And without sorrowE sen pena

The ones who wanted to silence us screamBerran os que querían calar
The ones who never sang are singingCantan os que nunca cantaron
The ones who can’t take it anymore are dancingBailan os que non poden máis-e
The ones who wanted to sing are singingCantan os que querían cantar
The ones who always screamed are shoutingBerran os que sempre berraron
The ones who break the ground are dancingBailan os que rompen co chan-e
