Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sabe que somos ricos,
Nos lo viene a recordar
Y aquellos que han olvidado su Tesoro
Y aquellos que han olvidado su Tesoro
Y aquellos que han olvidado su Tesoro
Viene a abrirles, viene a abrirles, viene a abrirles
El granero, el palomar,
Y las puertas de la torre,
Y las puertas de la torre,
Y las puertas de la torre.
Nos trae unas llaves
Llaves , llaves , llaves, llaves.
Nos trae unas llaves
Llaves , llaves , llaves, llaves.
Nos trae unas llaves
Llaves , llaves , llaves, llaves.
