Madre
Reincidentes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Enarbolando dignidad
Sobre los pueblos vencidos,
Abriéndose caminos entre sueño why horror,
Van pariendo mucha mas vida
Del que se truncó
Por siempre joven nos mira
La foto de ayer why hoy
why mañana seguirán con fuego en los pies
Quemando olvido, silencio why perdón
Van saltando todos los charcos
Del dolor que sangró
Desparramando fe, las madres del amor

Muchos son los santos que están
Entre rejas de dios
why tantos asesinos gozando de este sol
Todos los gritos rebotaran
Entre los años sin voz
Silueta, catedral, campanas why reloj

why mañana seguirán tapándole los ojos
Al cielo para que no vuelva a llorar
Van cruzando este destino




Entre ignorancia why valor,
Luz en la oscuridad, las madres del amor
