Parents Poem (Spanish Version Original)

Hemos venido de la isla de encanto,

Del territorio de lo posible,

De la tierra del café, o

De un largo y angosto país,

Venimos del lugar donde las estrellas brillan

Y las montañas son de mil colores

De donde quedo la mitad de nuestros corazones,

Del país más hermoso,

Donde encuentras playas,  tierras, llanos, montañas, y selvas espectaculares. 

Hemos pasado por casi todo el mundo,

Algunos por Europa,

Por un sinfín de sentimientos, aventuras, y emociones en nuestro viaje,

En nuestro recorrido por todo América mirando el cielo

en busca de grandes cambios

Hemos dejado a nuestra familia, 

Hemos pasado por desiertos de tristeza

Ríos de lágrimas y montañas de ira

Y aquí estamos, en el país de los sueños

Luchando por una vida mejor.

 

Parent’s Poem (English version)

We have come from the island of charm,

From the territory of the possible,

From the land of coffee, or

From a long and narrow country,

We come from the place where the stars shine

And the mountains are a thousand colors

Where we left  half of our hearts,

We com from the most beautiful country,

Where you find beaches, lands, lowlands, mountains, and spectacular jungles. 

We’ve been through almost the whole world,

Some through Europe,

Through endless feelings, adventures, and emotions on our journey,

On our route to America we look at the sky

in search of big changes

We have left our family, 

We have gone through deserts of sadness, Rivers of tears, and mountains of anger

And here we are, in the land of dreams

Working and fighting for a better life.

We come from the place where the stars shine

And the mountains are de mil colores

Where we left  half of our corazones,

We com from the most beautiful country,

Where you find beaches, lands, lowlands, mountains, and spectacular jungles. 

We’ve been through almost the whole world,

Some through Europe,

Through endless feelings, adventures, and emotions on our viaje,

On our route to America we look at the sky

in search of big cambios

We have left our familias, 

We have gone through deserts of tristeza, Rivers of lagrimas, and mountains of anger

And here we are, in the land of sueños

Luchando for a better life.
