Abre Las Manos [English translation]

Open your wings the world’s waiting for you

A surprise that God keeps for you

Open your hands the heavens protect

A little gift that's just for you

The green of your hair

And the blue of your skin

Love is a mirror

Where nobody is seen

Close your eyes and look at your soul

A little leaf in the tree of love

Open your eyes and look at who loves you

A branch, branch, branch, branch

Your god is my goddess

It can’t be different

My goddess is your god

Don’t stop people

Look at the corner-store covered in blood

I was looking for you but there’s no one

Look at the museum it was destroyed

By people that had never even entered

Look at the line, 20,000 hours

There’s my aunt waiting for her bread

What percentage of hungry people

Is needed for something to change

Yesterday my neighbor was kidnapped

I wanted to tell you but it’s nothing

Open your hands the world’s waiting for you

A little gift that’s just for for you

It’s just for you

Only for you

Just for you
