Lyrics and translation Mercedes Sosa - Gira y Gira




Gira y Gira
Spin and Spin
Gira y gira la vida
Life spins and spins,
Siempre lucha el amor
Love always fights,
Dignidad de los pueblos
Dignity of the peoples,
Aunque gobierne lo peor
Even where the worst hold sway,
Gira y gira la historia
History spins and spins,
Se repite el dolor
Pain repeats itself,
No es tu procer ni gloria
It's not your hero nor your glory,
No le creo al perdón
I don't believe in forgiveness,
Sol, que me estás salvando
Sun, you who are saving me,
Iluminan mi esperanza tus ojos claros
Your clear eyes light up my hope,
Sol, me vas protegiendo
Sun, you keep me safe,
En este tiempo igual a los que ya fueron
In these times like those that came before,
Gira y giran los días
Days spin and spin,
Tanta gente han matado
So many people have been killed,
La mentira es la misma
The lie is the same,
Para justificarlo
To justify it,
Sol, que me estás salvando
Sun, you who are saving me,
Iluminan mi esperanza tus ojos claros
Your clear eyes light up my hope,
Sol, me vas protegiendo
Sun, you keep me safe,
En este tiempo igual a los que ya fueron
In these times like those that came before,
Gira y giran las horas
Hours spin and spin,
Si me marcho no estoy
If I go, I am not there,
Si no estoy ya no canto
If I am not there, I no longer sing,
Sin cantar no soy yo
Without singing, I am not me,
Sol, que me estás salvando
Sun, you who are saving me,
Iluminan mi esperanza tus ojos claros
Your clear eyes light up my hope,
Sol, me vas protegiendo
Sun, you keep me safe,
En este tiempo igual a los que ya fueron
In these times like those that came before,
Sol, que me estás salvando
Sun, you who are saving me,
