Translation of the song lyrics Ave Caída - Alberto Cortez

Ave Caída (original)

Dime ave caída, dime ave caída
Quien detuvo tu vuelo
Cuando blanca llevabas
En el pico una rama, en el azul del cielo
Dime ave caída, dime ave caída
Quien detuvo tu vuelo
Fuiste tú y tus hermanos, vestidos de soldado
Que no quieren que vuele, y me vieron volando
Fuiste tú y tus hermanos, con un arma y un casco
Fuiste tú y tus hermanos, los que me han derribado
Dime prado sin flores, dime prado sin flores
Que ha pasado en tu suelo
Que no tiene colores, mariposas ni amores
Y que todo se ha muerto
Dime prado sin flores, dime prado sin flores
Que ha pasado en tu suelo
Fuiste tú y tus hermanos, vestidos de soldado
Que pisaron las flores, y metralla sembraron
Fuiste tú y tus hermanos, con un arma y un casco
Que no quieren más flores, y las han derribado
Dime niño que juegas
Dime niño que juegas, quien te dio los juguetes
Esas balas de goma
Esa falsa pistola, el fusil y los cohetes
Dime niño que juegas
Dime niño que juegas, quien te dio los juguetes
Fuiste tú y mis hermanos, vestidos de paisanos
Que con estos juguetes, me llenaron las manos
Fuiste tú y mis hermanos, quienes me los han dado
Que por ser de juguete, dicen que no hacen daño
Dime ave caída, dime ave caída
Quien detuvo tu vuelo
Cuando blanca llevabas
En el pico una rama, en el azul del cielo
Dime ave caída, dime ave caída
Quien detuvo tu vuelo

Ave Caída (translation)

Tell me fallen bird, tell me fallen bird
who stopped your flight
when you wore white
At the peak a branch, in the blue of the sky
Tell me fallen bird, tell me fallen bird
who stopped your flight
It was you and your brothers, dressed as soldiers
They don't want me to fly, and they saw me flying
It was you and your brothers, with a gun and a helmet
It was you and your brothers that brought me down
Tell me meadow without flowers, tell me meadow without flowers
What has happened in your soil
That has no colors, butterflies or love
And that everything has died
Tell me meadow without flowers, tell me meadow without flowers
What has happened in your soil
It was you and your brothers, dressed as soldiers
That they stepped on the flowers, and they sowed shrapnel
It was you and your brothers, with a gun and a helmet
They don't want any more flowers, and they've been knocked down
tell me child you play
Tell me child you play, who gave you the toys
those rubber bullets
That fake gun, the rifle and the rockets
tell me child you play
Tell me child you play, who gave you the toys
It was you and my brothers, dressed as civilians
That with these toys, they filled my hands
It was you and my brothers who gave them to me
That because it is a toy, they say that they do not hurt
Tell me fallen bird, tell me fallen bird
who stopped your flight
when you wore white
At the peak a branch, in the blue of the sky
Tell me fallen bird, tell me fallen bird
who stopped your flight
