Related: About this forumVictor Jara - Abre la Ventana
María, abre la ventana
y deja que el sol alumbre
por todos los rincones
de tu casa.
María, mira hacia afuera
nuestra vida no ha sido hecha
para rodearla de sombras
y tristezas.
María ya ves,
no basta nacer, crecer, amar,
para encontrar la felicidad.
Pasó lo más cruel,
ahora tus ojos se llenan de luz
y tus manos de miel.
María...
Tu risa brota como la mañana
brota en el jardín.
María.

Open your Window
Maria, open your window,
And let the sun shine
In every corner
Of your house.
Maria, look outside,
Our life has not been made
To surround it with shadows
and sadness.
Maria, you see,
It's not enough to be born, grow, love,
To find happiness.
The cruelest happened,
Now your eyes are filled with light
And your hands of honey.
Maria...
Your laugh sprouts like the morning
Sprouts in the garden.
Maria.

(9,985 posts)1. That is beautiful! Thank you!
I'd like to share this song from Arlo Guthrie's album Amigo, which I bought immediately after I heard the song.
