hazme un favor
en esto momento
olvidese de usted mismo

do me a favor
forget yourselves in this moment

forget that you have carried burdens
and seen things that have made you men

take off those glasses of adulthood
without them you'll see a world of beauty and illusion
mysterious and an unchartable world

clasp hands with your neighbor
and you will see the age fall off like dirt caked on

listen to the world and its song
throw open the doors and join in the chorus

the men and women who have come before have fertilized the land
roots have grown deep and we should not fear erosion
this too is ours

breathe in deeply and close your eyes
upon the breeze you will smell home
the coffee and the platano
the ash and the loroco

i hear your voices still and clear in mind
i wish to share this with you
reach deep inside yourselves break loose those bonds of seriousness

i was there with you i have seen home trough you tales and your eyes
i call out to it now and bring it forth

remember i have heard you
i wish for you to hear me now

age will not take this from me nor you
in my words and through my eyes you will see

you have brought it with you
in my veins it still flows
