Canto a la Tierra. Song for the Earth and the brilliance of her people.
lyrics
Verde, verde, verde con luz… verde son las faldas de mi madre
Azul, azul, azul con luz… azul son los brazos de mi padre
Luz, luz, mágica luz… luz es la belleza de la fuente
Luz Luz, mágica luz, luz es la brillantez de nuestra gente.
Green, green, green with light… Green is the lap of my mother
Blue, blue, blue with light… Blue is the embrace of my father
Light, light, magical light… Light is the beauty of the source
Light, light, magical light… Light is the brilliance of our people.
