Bandera De Manos Juanes translation
Artist: Juanes
Album: La Vida Es Un Ratico
Title: Bandera De Manos
Translated Title: Flag Of Hands
Let's do a flag with black hands, everybody
a flag with white hands
for a better world in this moment
let's do a flag with mestizo* hands, everybody
a flag with immigrants' hands
for a better world
now that we are tired
of so many stories won
of so many promises never accomplished
raise our soul and voice
let's make love
as it is a demonstration
'cos war does not give explications
this way, burning the skin of your hands
that are my hands
of your soul, that is like mine
the irony of fate, that our life gives us
while millions of people die of starvation
the leaders buy arsenals
and in this way they sow pain
let's do a unique flag, everybody
let's topple the borders, everybody
for a better world
in this moment we sow peace
more justice, more dignity
I was born in freedom and equality
for a better world
now that we are tired
of so many stories won
of so many promises never accomplished
raise our souls and voices
let's make love
as it is a demonstration
'cos war does not give explications
this way, burning the skin of your hands
that are my hands
of your soul, that is like mine
the irony of fate, that our life gives us
while millions of people die of starvation
the leaders buy arsenals
and in this way they sow pain
*Mestizo: Mestizo is a Spanish term used to indicate people
of different races or different cultures. It was used in the
Spanish Empire to designate people of mixed European
and Amerindian ancestry living in the colonies.
