[English]

You break my soul,

When you make me remember your tears

The cruel agony,

That we all suffer searching for peace

One more day, the truth is harsh

Dawn, you won’t find anything to hope for

You celebrate death,

False is victory, for you won't win

With deep anger,

You cry for those you’ll have to bury

Hunger and pain around you

Crazy obsession of someone who thinks they’re God

I want to change this story, searching for peace

And I ask my people for what others deny with their forgetfulness

The hypocrisy of the world revealed its charm

Giving false roses to the fallen

I want to change this story, searching for peace

And I ask my people for what others deny with their forgetfulness

It doesn’t matter if you find loneliness far away

My outstretched hand will say I’m always with you

Searching for peace

...

[Spanish]

Quiebras mi alma,

Cuando por tu llanto me haces recordar

La cruel agonía,

Que todos sufrimos buscando la paz

Un día más, dura es la verdad

Amanecer, nada esperarás

Festejas la muerte,

Falsa es la victoria, pues no ganarás

Con ira profunda,

Lloras a los tuyos que habrás de enterrar

Hambre y dolor a tu alrededor

Loca obsesión de quien se cree Dios

Quiero cambiar esta historia buscando la paz

Y pido a mi gente lo que otros niegan con su olvido

La hipocresía del mundo su encanto mostró

Regalando las rosas falsas para los caídos

Quiero cambiar esta historia buscando la paz

Y pido a mi gente lo que otros niegan con su olvido

No importa que en la distancia encuentres soledad

Mi mano tendida dirá que siempre estoy contigo

Buscando la paz
