La Calma(original) |
| Puerto Rico donde comienza a conocerse |
| El tamaño de la devastación que ha dejado el huracán María |
| Se ha confirmado al menos un muerto |
| Pero se teme que hayan muchos más |
| La isla entera permanece incomunicada |
| Y eso tiene con el alma en un hilo a miles de personas |
| Que esperan noticias de los suyos |
| Ah, esto se está acabando, ¿tú no ves noticia'? |
| Ancianos mueren por falta de oxígeno, asfixia |
| No te confundas, que esto no es un salmo |
| Esto es más que sólo nos tenemos, y solos vamos a levantarno' |
| 100×35, no hay nada qué avergonzarnos |
| Cabeza pa' arriba, vamos a organizarnos |
| Si nos esforzamos a la meta llegamos, no hay lu' |
| Perdimos to', pero como quiera tenemos salu' |
| Aquí no hay plata, pero tenemos cojones |
| Variamente en tus oraciones |
| Yo vo’a cruzar to’s estas condiciones |
| Por ahí vienen to’as las bendiciones |
| Aquí no hay plata, pero tenemos cojones |
| Variamente en tus oraciones |
| Yo vo’a cruzar to’s estas condiciones |
| Por ahí vienen to’as las bendiciones |
| Que nadie nos coja pena, pero que se apiaden |
| Patria son tantas cosas bonitas, dile Rubén Blades |
| Positivo aunque la cosa siga estando grave |
| Con la fe en Papá Dios y que nunca se acabe |
| Esto no es una canción, es una rebelión |
| Sin política, sin antifaz, sin religión |
| Unos lo hacen por promo y otros de corazón |
| ¿Qué es peor que un ciclón?, un tal Donald Trump |
| El gober' dice que vamos por 30 muerte' |
| Y que esta vez no tuvimos suerte |
| Lugares donde todavía no ha llegado el lente |
| Donde no llega el agua ni la comida caliente |
| Desde Culebra hasta Morovis, yo lo vivi, no me lo contaron |
| 14 días pa' responder, que muchos se tardaron |
| Era como si de nosotros ustedes se olvidaron |
| No nos quieren de estado, pero sí colonizado |
| América Latina es una, que quede claro |
| ¿Por qué te sorprende?, ¿por qué te suena raro? |
| Dizque «vago», mi hermano que descaro |
| Si soy un ciudadano y mi taxes pago |
| Tierra su campo |
| Si caigo 5, entonces 10 veces yo me levanto |
| Ah, PR nunca perderá su encanto |
| Cabeza pa' arriba aunque nos esté arropando el llanto |
| Ah, aquí no hay plata, pero tenemos cojones |
| Variamente en tus oraciones |
| Yo vo’a cruzar to’s estas condiciones |
| Por ahí vienen to’as las bendiciones |
| Aquí no hay plata, pero tenemos cojones |
| Variamente en tus oraciones |
| Yo vo’a cruzar to’s estas condiciones |
| Por ahí vienen to’as las bendiciones |
| Hold up, just one second |
| Let us play this for you, for you and our viewers |
| Listen to this |
| I’m very satisfied, I know it is a hard storm to recover from |
| But the amount of progress that’s been made |
| And I really would appreciate any support that we get |
| I know it is a really a good news story |
| Well, maybe from where she’s standing it’s a good news story |
| When you’re drinking from a creek, it’s not a good news story |
| When you don’t have food for a baby, it’s not a good news story |
| When you have to pull people down from their building, because you— |
| I’m sorry, but that really upsets me, and frustrates me |
| Damn it, this is not a good news story, this is a «people are dying» story |
| This is a «life or death» story |
| This is— «There's a truckload of stuff that cannot be taken to people» story |
| This is a story of a devastation, that continues to worsen |
| (translation) |
| Puerto Rico where you begin to meet |
| The size of the devastation left by Hurricane Maria |
| At least one death has been confirmed |
| But it is feared that there are many more |
| The entire island remains incommunicado |
| And that has thousands of people with their souls on a thread |
| What do you expect from yours? |
| Ah, this is ending, don't you see the news? |
| Elderly die from lack of oxygen, suffocation |
| Make no mistake, this is not a psalm |
| This is more than we just have each other, and we're just going to get up' |
| 100×35, there is nothing to be ashamed of |
| Head up, let's organize |
| If we strive to reach the goal, there is no lu' |
| We lost everything, but anyway we have health |
| Here there is no money, but we have cojones |
| variously in your prayers |
| I will cross all these conditions |
| That's where all the blessings come from |
| Here there is no money, but we have cojones |
| variously in your prayers |
| I will cross all these conditions |
| That's where all the blessings come from |
| Let no one take pity on us, but let them have mercy |
| Homeland are so many beautiful things, tell Rubén Blades |
| Positive even though things are still serious |
| With faith in Papa Dios and may it never end |
| This is not a song, it's a rebellion |
| No politics, no mask, no religion |
| Some do it for promo and others from the heart |
| What is worse than a cyclone?, a certain Donald Trump |
| The governor says that we are going for 30 deaths |
| And that this time we were not lucky |
| Places where the lens has not yet reached |
| Where neither water nor hot food arrives |
| From Culebra to Morovis, I lived it, they didn't tell me |
| 14 days to respond, which many took |
| It was as if you forgot about us |
| They don't want us as a state, but they do want us colonized |
| Latin America is one, let it be clear |
| Why does it surprise you? Why does it sound strange to you? |
| Say "lazy", my brother that impudence |
| If I am a citizen and I pay my taxes |
| Land your field |
| If I fall 5, then 10 times I get up |
| Ah, PR will never lose its charm |
| Head up, even though crying is covering us |
| Ah, there is no money here, but we have cojones |
| variously in your prayers |
| I will cross all these conditions |
| That's where all the blessings come from |
| Here there is no money, but we have cojones |
| variously in your prayers |
| I will cross all these conditions |
| That's where all the blessings come from |
| Hold up, just one second |
| Let us play this for you, for you and our viewers |
| Listen to this |
| I'm very satisfied, I know it is a hard storm to recover from |
| But the amount of progress that's been made |

| This is a story of a devastation, that continues to worsen |
