lyrics

Mi tierra está incendiando;
Mi tierra, mi tierra
Mi tierra está entrecruzada
Con topaderas–
Se ha desollado.

Mi tierra ya no es mi tierra;
Mi tierra, mi tierra
Nosotros extrañamos algo
Pero no sabemos
Que se perdió.

-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Chigorirúame
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Suwaba ma boyé!
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Chigorirúame
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Suwaba ma boyé!

Quisiera, quisiera, quisiera
Andar descalza–pies ligeros
El aire está atrapado,
Y descendemos
En tinieblas.

La tierra no es nuestra tierra;
Mi tierra, mi tierra
Nosotros extrañamos algo
Pero no sabemos
Que se perdió.

-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Chigorirúame
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Suwaba ma boyé!
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Chigorirúame
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Suwaba ma boyé!

Ay, yo podría volar
Sobre problemas del mundo
Y saltaría en los montes
De pico a pico nevado
Vestida de blanco, reflejando luz
Todo ya purificada

…Si allá en aquellos espacios, no tuviera sueños---
De mi tierra.

-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Chigorirúame
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Suwaba ma boyé!
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Chigorirúame
-Nijé kawíwarachi
-Suwaba ma boyé!

-Nijé kawíwarachi
