Esto No Es Una Cancion
cuando hablen de la patria
no me hablen del honor
no me cuenten batallas
gandas cara al sol
tal vez si me contaran
que no importa el color
ni el sexo, ni la raza
o el bando en que luchó
cuando hablen de la patria
no me hablen del valor
ni jueguen con el sable
ni tachen de traidor
al que la lleva dentro
pegada al corazón
y no anda por la calle
con ella en procesión
Cuando hablan de la patria
no olviden que es mejor
sentirla a nuestro lado
que ser su salvador
por repetir su nombre
no te armas de razón
aquí cabemos todos
o no cabe ni Dios.
This Is Not a Song
when they talk about the homeland
don't talk to me about honor
don't tell me about battles
gandas face the sun
maybe if they told me
that color doesn't matter
or sex, or race
or the side they fought on
when they talk about the homeland
don't talk to me about valor
don't play with the saber
don't label as traitor
those who carry it inside
attached to the heart
and don't walk down the street
with it in procession
When they talk about the homeland
don't forget that it's better
to feel it by our side
than to be its savior
to repeat its name
won't make you right
we all fit here
or not even God fits
