Digo España
I Say Spain
Digo pare de encalada
I say whitewashed wall
Al fondo hay un mar de olivos
In the distance there's a sea of olive trees
Digo alhambra y las ramblas
I say Alhambra and Las Ramblas
Se oye al fondo una guitarra
In the background you can hear a guitar
Casi nada está en su sitio
Almost nothing is in its rightful place
Digo España
I say Spain
Digo que no sobra el agua
I say that there's not enough water
Pero si doblo este mapa
But if I fold this map
Vemo que el desierto avanza
I see that the desert is advancing
Sin que nadie intente nada
Without anyone trying to stop it
Nos gustan los precipicios
We like precipices
Digo España
I say Spain
Digo España
I say Spain
Y que bien suena esa palabra
And how that word sounds so beautiful
No la arrojo contra nadie
I don't throw it against anyone
Contra nada
Against anything
Digo España
I say Spain
Y como pesa en estas alas
And how it weighs upon these wings
Lo que odio y que padezco
The things I hate and that I suffer
Digo patria
I say homeland
Digo patria y es tan mía
I say homeland and it is so mine
Como las nubes que pasan
As the clouds that pass by
El cielo de Andalucía

Desde Cantabria a Navarra

De Extremadura a Canarias

Digo España
I say Spain
Esta tierra esta cruzada

Por astures por vascones
By Asturians, by Basques
Catalanes y andaluces

Niego que no haya salida

Quien decide las batallas

Quien no regala las armas

Borremos todas las lindes
Let us erase all the borders
Que dividen y separan

Digo España

Digo España
I say Spain
Y que bien suena esa palabra
And how that word sounds so beautiful
No la arrojo contra nadie

Y como pesa en estas alas
And how it weighs upon these wings
Lo que odio y que padezco
