Copyright © 2003 Don Burns Yo iba caminando I went walking Por la orilla del mar (bis) Along the shore of the ocean Blancas olas reventaban en la playa White waves crashed along the beach Y el sol penetraba la neblina And the sun penetrated the fog Pero en el canto de las aves marina But in the song of the sea birds Se oia el grito, Libertad! (bis) One could hear the cry, Liberty! Peru, Peru Hay tristeza en la belleza de la tierra There is sadness in the beauty of the land Peru, Peru Hay temor en las colinas de la sierra There is fear in mountains Peru, Peru En la cuesta de una montan~a On the peak of a high mountain El Inca Llora The Inca weeps Yo iba caminando I went walking Senderos de la sierra (bis) Along mountain paths Blancas Nubes rodeaban las colinas White clouds surrounded the mountain tops Y el sol sonreia en los valles And the sun smiled upon the valleys Pero en el rostro del humilde campesino On the face of the humble country man Hay sangre derramada, despreciada (bis) There is shed blood, disdained (Coro) (Chorus) Hay lluvia en la selva There is rain in the jungle Hay truenos y relampagos (bis) There is thunder and lightning Hay secretos que esconde el monte There are secrets that are hidden by the bush Los rios huyen al horizonte The rivers rush to the horizon Lavando la patria de los pecados Washing the country of the sins Cometidos por corruptos gobernantes Committed by corrupt leaders (Coro) (Chorus) |
