about

BORDER STORIES: HERIDA ABIERTA DE LA FRONTERA (The Open Wound of the Border)
Words and music by Abel Rocha

lyrics

Vivo la agonia de la espera
En esta fria prision
Sin mi mama y mi papa
Se muere mi corazon

Las luces siempre encendidas
Que me prohiben dormir
Con lo que llaman comida
Milagro es sobrevivir

Soy un nino en desamparo
De mis padres separado
Vivo en mi ser el abuso
Sin ternura vivo yo, condenado

En pleno siglo veintiuno
Mas de cien anos cantando
Sigue el Corrido cantando
Mil penas e infortunios

Canto a la Revolucion
Y al pueblo trabajador
Los que mueren en la raya
De hambre, frio o de calor

Vuela vuela palomita
Vuela y cruza la frontera
Ve y dile al que no lo entienda
Que es duro, dejar tu tierra

En Guatemala y Honduras
Aun Mexico y Salvador
Donde no se vive paz
Y solo reina el terror

Democracias destruidas
Intervencuon militar
Crimen organizado
Solo quedan inmigrantes
Y miles de refugiados

Sueno mi America libre
Y no un sueno americano
Y condenado a la huida
Sin ningun Derecho Humano

Senores ya me despido
Cantando esta cancion
Hay quienes viven tragedias
Y quienes cantan su horror

Vuela vuela gorrioncillo
Vuela para aquella higuera
Esto va para los niños
Que lloran en la Frontera.
