Canción con todos
Sosa Mercedes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Por la cintura cósmica del sur
Piso en la regio
Mas vegetal del viento y de la luz
Siento al caminar
Toda la piel de América en mi piel
Y anda en mi sangre un rio
Que libera en mi voz su caudal
Sol de alto Peru, rostro Bolivia estaño y soledad
Un verde Brasil besa a mi Chile cobre y mineral
Subo desde el sur hacia la entraña América y total
Pura raíz de un grito destinado a crecer y a estallar
Todas las voces, todas
Todas las manos, todas
Toda la sangre puede
Ser canción en el viento
Canta conmigo, canta
Hermano americano
Libera tu esperanza
Con un grito en la voz
Todas las voces, todas
Todas las manos, todas
Toda la sangre puede
Ser canción en el viento
Canta conmigo, canta
Hermano americano
Libera tu esperanza
Con un grito en la voz
The lyrics in Sosa Mercedes's song Cancion con Todos translate to "I go for a walk through the cosmic waistline of the south, I step in a region of time and light that is the most lush and green. As I walk, I feel all of America's skin on my skin, and in my blood, a river flows that liberates its abundance in my voice. The sun of northern Peru, the face of Bolivia, tin and loneliness, a green Brazil kisses my Chile, copper and minerals. I climb from the south towards the American core, pure root of a scream destined to grow and burst.
The chorus is an invitation to all, as she sings "All voices, all hands, all blood can be a song in the wind. Sing with me, brother American, release your hope, with a shout in your voice." It is a call to action, a request to join her on this journey to celebrate the beauty and diversity of the Americas, and to let their voices be heard.
The lyrics speak of personal and collective identity, the unity of the diverse people of America, and the need for mutual support and encouragement for the future. Like many of Sosa Mercedes's songs, Cancion con Todos is a tribute to the richness of Latin American culture, history, and heritage.
