De un árbol nace el fruto de humanidad
Germina en cueva de ánimas
Serpiente y fuego de este lugar
Que lo indicó
Para poblar el monte del cielo
Rumbo de fertilidad (el este)
Rumbo del naciente Sol
Casa de vida
De piedras brotan hombres que invocarán
La búsqueda por su libertad
Veintiocho años pasarán
Por esa guerra
Sagrada guerra del cielo
Búsqueda de un culto más
Fuerza de poder y rito
Tiempo de muerte
Árbol de mi sangre
Árbol de mis hijos
Árbol de la vida
Árbol de mi Dios
De un árbol nace el fruto hecho mujer
La muerte va rondando su poder
Retoño de su sangre morirá
Su casa y su pueblo
Abandonados serán
Fuego y sangre mancharán
Los frutos de su fertilidad
Madre tierra se volverán
Madre tierra se volverán
Madre tierra se volverán
