Lyrics
Puente Del Mundo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Verde cinta de tierra, que estando ausente llevo por dentro;
Olas de norte y sur se unen en tu centro.
Roja, azul, blanca aurora, nació del tajo de una sandía;
Un alma de inmigrante fue tu semilla, y la sangre del indio
Formó tu orilla. ¡piedra de cielo! ¡agua de luna!
Ngobe bugle, emberá, chocó, blanco, negro y kuna:
Perfiles de una esperanza que no se esfuma.
Un paraíso compraron cuentas de vidrio, telas y espejos;
Fuente de juventud para un viejo imperio.
La luz dentro de tu entraña se transformó en camino de
Acero, y nuestra gente en sombras de la que fueron.
¿cuándo seremos manos, en vez de dedos?
Con claro oscuro, con socabón, ¡con fiesta y duelo!
Pedazos de corazón formaron tu suelo.
Siempre estaremos aquí, aunque estemos lejos.
En el puente del mundo
Abiá yala bin sógue *
* ("amén a la américa indígena", en lenguaje kuna)
