lyrics

Cantaré a la tierra
como ofrenda
como una declaración
a sus vagas luciérnagas,
las estrellas y el sol

Dejaré claro mi parte
ya he llorado suficiente pa’jugar
a que ganado la prueba
de los yugos ante el mar

Vine para agradecer,
vine para agradecer,
vine para agradecer

Traigo para este brindis
una foto de mi mama y la canción
que escribí a los cuarenta
de otra vida a mi nación

Dentro de una bolsita
va un pedazo de mi piel
que arranqué de mi muñeca
hoy lo vengo a devolver

Vine para celebrar,
vine para celebrar,
que todavía tengo vida
para mi tierra cantar

Vine para celebrar,
vine para celebrar,
que todavía tengo vida
para la Tierra cantar
