Mägo de Oz "La Conquista" lyrics

Translation to:en

La Conquista

El viento se despertóLevantando al dios del marMientras bostezaba el solEl horizonte se desveló

Desnudábanse con aire sensualLa costa y el litoralDejando caer la niebla a sus piesCreí ver el jardín del edén

Y al pisar tierra firme vi llegarA unas gentes que al verNuestro ropaje no sabían que hacer

Hemos venido a cambiarVuestros sueños por la feVuestro oro por tenerA un dios y un rey a quien seguir

Guerra, muerte, destrucción...Nuestro himno ¡qué valor!Al soldado y al señorLa conquista les excito

Y aunque nunca quise ser como élPediré que nunca másSe conquiste a otro pueblo jamás

Quiero pedir perdónY conquistar tu corazónQuiero pedir perdónEn una batalla, las primeras bajas,Son la justicia y el amor

Y a ti te hablo hoyCuida y ama tu tradiciónHoy quiero tu perdónSi tu tierra amas, no dejes por nada,De cuidarla por favor1

The Conquest

The wind awakenedWhile rousing the god of the seaWhile the sun was yawningThe horizon was unable to sleep

Getting undressed with a sensual airWere the cost and the littoralLetting the fog fall to their feetI thought I saw the Garden of Eden

And, when we set foot on dry land, I sawSome people arrive, who, when they sawOur clothes, they didn't know what to do

We have come to exchangeYour dreams for faithYour gold to haveA god and a king to follow

War, death, destruction...Our hymn, such bravery!The soldier and the lordWere excited by the conquest

And even though I never wanted to be like him,I'll ask never forAny other people to be conquered again

I want to ask for forgivenessAnd to conquer your heartI want to ask for forgivenessIn a battle, the first casualtiesAre justice and love

I talk to you today,Love and take care of your traditionToday, I want your forgivenessIf you love your land, never, for any reasonStop taking care of it
