Lila Downs "Envidia" lyrics

Translation to:en

Envidia

Ya no me tapas esta vezYa somos muchosPorque yo tengo lo que tú quisieras serYa no me tienes ahí debajo y escondidaYa no me insultas porque tienes el poderYa .no. Me.Ya .no .MeEscondes en el closet de tu casa

Que no te debo muchas horas de placerEs más tú sí, tú si me debesTodos mis años, mis mejores me quitasteDónde seDónde se fueron las promesas del ayerEnvidiaTú me tienes mucha envidiaPorque soy todas las cosasQue tú quieres para tiEnvidiaEs que me tienes envidiaViste la vida sonríeY mi corazón es felizHoras y horas acabándome por tiYa no seré la que se agacha y se callaA mí se me respetaLakota, Inca, Azteca, Mapuche, MayaMi herencia, es una advertenciaEl mundo no se acabaporque yo no lo permitoYo soy las lágrimas en esta piedraY danzare este ritmo a la madre tierra

Envy

Dont cover me anymore this timeWe are manyBecause I have what you would like to beYou no longer have me beneath and hidden.You no longer insult me because you have the power.Not anymore, meYou no longer hide me in the closet of your house

That I dont owe you many hours of pleasureIts more you, yes. You, if you owe me.All my years, you took the best ones away from me.Where did they goWhere did they go, the promises of the yesterday.EnvyYou have a lot of envy towards meBecause I am all the things that you want for me.EnvyIts that you envy meYou saw life smileAnd my heart is happyHours and hours finishing myself for youI will not no longer be her that bows and is hushesI will be respectedLakota, Inca, Azteca, Mapuche, MayaMy inheritance is an warningThe world is not overBecause I dont allow itI am the tears on this stoneAnd I will dance this rhythm to the mother land
