Carlos Vives "La tierra prometida" lyrics

Translation to:en

La tierra prometida

Intro]Visite Madrid, fui a Barcelona y ParisY era tan genial el arte en Roma y FlorenciaComo no adorar a Budapest y a BerlinComo no adorar a las mujeres en Suecia

[Pre-Coro]Pero igualLa tierra solo se entrega al marTu mirarEl paisaje al que yo quiero regresar

[Coro]Por eso siempre le pido a la vidaQue a la tierra prometida me lleveQue la gente siempre esté bien queridaY si me lleva muy lejos regrese

[Verso 1]Visite Nepal y hasta logre meditarY llegué a pensar que Buddha estaba en mi penaQuise merodear, me fui a Dubai y a QatarNo puedo negar que es una vida muy buena

[Pre-Coro]Pero igualLa tierra solo se entrega al marTu mirarEl paisaje al que yo quiero regresar

[Coro]Por eso siempre le pido a la vidaQue a la tierra prometida me lleveQue la gente siempre esté bien queridaY si me lleva muy lejos regrese

[Verso 2]Me gusta el hip-hop y el reggae y el reggaeton y el palenqueEl vallenato, la cumbia, lo que prefiere mi genteMe gusta el rock Argentino y el sonido de InglaterraEl soul, el blues, el corrido y los porros de mi tierra

[Coro]Por eso siempre le pido a la vidaQue a la tierra prometida me lleveQue la gente siempre esté bien queridaY si me lleva muy lejos regrese

the land

Intro]Visit Madrid, I went to Barcelona and ParisThe art was so great In Roma and FlorencaHow not to adore Budapest and Berlinhow not to adore the women in Sweeden

[Pre-Coro]But just likethe land is only delivered to the seayour lookthe landscape that I wanna return to

[Coro]that's why I always ask for itmay the promised land take mefor the people are aways well lovedAnd if it takes me very far back

[Verse 1]Visit Nepal and I even managed to meditateAnd I came to think that Buddha was in my griefI wanted to hang around, I went to Dubai and QatarI can not deny that it is a very good life

[Pre-Chorus]But likewiseThe land is only delivered to the seaYour lookThe landscape that I want to return to

[Chorus]That's why I always ask for lifeMay the promised land take meThat people are always well lovedAnd if it takes me very far back

[Verse 2]I like hip-hop and reggae and reggaeton and the palenqueThe vallenato, the cumbia, what my people preferI like Argentine rock and the sound of EnglandThe soul, the blues, the corrido and the joints of my land

[Chorus]That's why I always ask for lifeMay the promised land take meThat people are always well lovedAnd if it takes me very far back
