Paroles et traduction Alejandro Lerner - I Am American

I Am American

Me gustan los cowboys y las hamburguesas
La noche en Manhattan, viaje a las estrellas
Me gustan las calles allá en San Francisco
Yo sé que es distinto, que nada es lo mismo

I am american
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

Vinieron de lejos, trajeron los barcos
Perdieron los indios, ganaron los blancos
Aquella cultura quedó sepultada
Por cruces y espadas y voces calladas

I am American
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

I am American
Sur, Centro y Norteamérica
Cuando Dios hizo el Edén
Pensó en América

Le digo a la gente que tome consciencia
América es una, en cuerpo y esencia
América grande, ayuda a tu hermano
Que en este planeta vamos todos de la mano

I am American
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

I am American
Sur, Centro y Norteamérica
Cuando Dios hizo el Edén
Pensó en América

Pensó en América
Pensó en América
Pensó en América

América Latina no duerme en tus brazos
Trabaja y ayuda en las calles y en el campo
Sus hombres, mujeres, sus sueños, su fuerza
América es una que crece y no espera

Hispanos, orientales, negros y sajones
Caminan nuestra América por todos los rincones
América grande, ayuda a tu hermano
Que en este planeta vamos todos de la mano

I am American
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

I am American
Sur, Centro y Norteamérica
Cuando Dios hizo el Edén
Pensó en América

Pensó en América
Pensó en América
Pensó en América

I Am American

I like cowboys and hamburgers
Manhattan nights, journey to the stars
I like the streets in San Francisco
I know it's different, that nothing is the same

I am American
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

They came from afar, they brought the ships
The Indians lost, the whites won
That culture was buried
By crosses and swords and silenced voices

I am American
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

I am American
South, Central, and North America
When God made Eden
He thought of America

I tell people to become aware
America is one, in body and essence
Great America, help your brother
On this planet, we are all together

I am American
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

I am American
South, Central, and North America
When God made Eden
He thought of America

He thought of America
He thought of America
He thought of America

Latin America does not sleep in your arms
It works and helps in the streets and in the countryside
Its men, women, its dreams, its strength
America is one that grows and does not wait

Hispanics, Orientals, blacks and Saxons
They walk our America in every corner
Great America, help your brother
On this planet, we are all together

I am American
South, South, South American
If God is your father, Pachamama is my mother
And we love our brothers, too

I am American
South, Central, and North America
When God made Eden
He thought of America

He thought of America
He thought of America
He thought of America
