Si [English translation]

If I were the Good Lord's friend,

If I knew any prayers,

If I had blue blood,

The ability to erase and do everything over again,

If I were queen or magician,

​Princess, fairy, great captain

of a noble regiment,

If I had the footsteps of a giant,

I would put from the sky in misery

All the tears in the river

And sands where hope itself flies out would bloom

I would sow utopias, to bend would be forbidden,

We wouldn't turn our gaze away again.

If I had thousands and hundreds,

Talent, strength, or the charms

Of the masters, the powerful;

If I had the keys to their souls

If I knew how to take up arms

In the fire of an army of titans,

I would light flames​ up​

In the extinguished dreams of children

I would ​put ​colors ​on sorrows

I would create Edens

For the no lucks, no stars, those less than nothing.

But I have nothing but a heart in rags

And two hands stretched out on twigs

A voice which the wind chases away in the morning;

But if our bare hands gather

Our millions of hearts together

If our voices united,

What winter could withstand it?

A world​ brother​, a kindred​ spirit land​ sister ​

We will build in these ashes

Little by little, ​piece by piece,

Drop by drop, and heart by heart,

Little by little, ​piece by piece,

Drop by drop, and heart by heart.
