Текст и перевод песни Macaco con Natalia Lafourcade - Mama tierra

Mama tierra

You can alwais close your eyes...
... but you can't close your ears
Hay una cuestión de
Yo-yo diría, ¿cómo es?
De amor a la tierra, ¿no?
De decir que somos parte de las raíces
De-de-de donde nacemos
Y entonces, pensando en esto
Se nos ocurrió una canción
Qué dificil
Cántarle a Tierra Madre
Que nos aguanta y nos vio crecer
Y a los padres de tus padres
Y a sus hijos, los que vendrán después
Si la miras como a tu Mama
Quizás nos cambie la mirada
Y actuemos como el que defiende a los suyos
Y a los que vienen con él
La raíz en mis pies yo sentí
Levante la mano y ví
Que todo es un ciclo
Que todo va unido
La Tierra, el Cielo y de nuevo aquí
Como el agua del mar a las nubes va
Llueve el agua y vuelta a empezar
Oye...
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Mother Earth (Mother Earth!)
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Motheer...
No se trata de romper ventanas
Ni farolas, ni de caras
Mejor romer conciencias equivocadas, oye
Nadie nos enseñó
Ni a tí ni a mí
Nadie nos explicó ni a tí ni a mí
Mejor aprender, que corra la voz
Y quizás conseguír...
"Bdre" bombeando, Tierra Madre dice
"B-dbdr" bombeando Tierra Madre
te dice "basta"
"B-dbdr, b-dbdr" bombeando Tierra Madre
te dice "escuche..."
"B-dbdr" bombeando Tierra Madre
dice "ponte en pié"
"B-dbdr" bombeando, "ponte en pié"
"B-dbdr" bombeando Tierra Madre
dice "ponte en pié"
Mírame, "yeeee..."
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Mother Earth (Mother Earth!)
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Motheer...
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente...
Mother... (Mother...)
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Motheer...
Llaman, llaman,
Mama Tierra, llaman
ya que las manejan sin plan
Demasiadas cavan, otras se caen
luego frutos no dan...
Llaman, llaman,
Mama Tierra, llaman
Oidos sordos les hace el mar, eh e-eh...
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Mother Earth (Mother Earth!)
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Motheer...
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente...
Mother... (Mother...)
Grite, grite-e
No, no, no, no lo ves
Va muriendo lentamente
Mama Tierra, Motheer...

Mother Earth

You can always close your eyes...
... but you can't close your ears
There's a matter of
I would say, how is it?
Of love for the Earth, right?
Of saying that we are part of the roots
From-from-from where we are born
And so, thinking about this
We came up with a song
How difficult
To sing to Mother Earth
Who endures us and watched us grow
And your parents' parents
And their children, those who will come after
If you look at her like your Mama
Perhaps our perspective will change
And we act like those who defend their own
And those who come with him
I felt the root in my feet
I raised my hand and saw
That everything is a cycle
That everything is connected
The Earth, the Sky and back here again
As the water from the sea goes to the clouds
It rains water and starts all over again
Hey...
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother Earth (Mother Earth!)
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother...
It's not about breaking windows
Nor streetlights, nor faces
Better to break mistaken consciences, hey
Nobody taught us
Neither you nor me
Nobody explained to you or me
Better to learn, let the word spread
And maybe achieve...
"Boom" pumping, Mother Earth says
"Boom-boom" pumping Mother Earth
tells you "enough"
"Boom-boom, boom-boom" pumping Mother Earth
tells you "listen..."
"Boom-boom" pumping Mother Earth
says "stand up"
"Boom-boom" pumping, "stand up"
"Boom-boom" pumping Mother Earth
says "stand up"
Look at me, "yeeee..."
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother Earth (Mother Earth!)
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother...
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly...
Mother... (Mother...)
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother...
They call, they call,
Mama Tierra, they call
since they are managed without a plan
Too many are dug, others fall
then they don't bear fruit...
They call, they call,
Mama Tierra, they call
The sea turns a deaf ear to them, eh e-eh...
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother Earth (Mother Earth!)
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother...
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly...
Mother... (Mother...)
Shout, shout-t
No, no, no, don't you see it?
She's dying slowly
Mama Tierra, Mother...
