Calle 13 - Ojos Color Sol ft. Silvio Rodríguez

  • 0:26 - 0:29
    Today the sun hid and refused to come out
  • 0:29 - 0:32
    he saw you wake up and was afraid to die
  • 0:32 - 0:35
    You opened your eyes and the sun put away his paintbrush
  • 0:35 - 0:38
    because you paint the landscape better than he.
  • 0:38 - 0:41
    When your beautifulness rises [in the morning]
  • 0:41 - 0:45
    any constellation becomes insecure.
  • 0:45 - 0:47
    Your beauty smells like morning
  • 0:47 - 0:51
    and feeds me throughout the whole week .
  • 0:51 - 0:54
    Your eyes do magic, they’re magicians. You opened them!
  • 0:54 - 0:57
    and now mountains reflect on the lakes.
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    The only absolute truth is
  • 0:59 - 1:03
    that when you were born trees bore fruit.
  • 1:03 - 1:06
    Sweet orange, a cherub’s harvest
  • 1:06 - 1:09
    because the sun was afraid, he hid in a cloud.
  • 1:09 - 1:12
    Today the sun is not needed, it’s in recess
  • 1:12 - 1:15
    you give me vitamin D with a kiss.
  • 1:16 - 1:22
    The moon goes for a walk following your pupils
  • 1:22 - 1:28
    night shines like the first time after you look at it.
  • 1:28 - 1:34
    No one knows anymore how to become happy through sorcery
  • 1:34 - 1:38
    because of you and your eyes.
  • 1:39 - 1:43
    You're a verse in reverse, a “re-verse”
  • 1:43 - 1:46
    you woke up and turned my universe around.
  • 1:46 - 1:49
    Now the summit can be reached by going down the mountain range
  • 1:49 - 1:52
    Earth no longer spins, you spin around the Earth.
  • 1:52 - 1:55
    Kisses are given out in war, there are no longer fights.
  • 1:55 - 1:58
    Today hens moo and cows cluck
  • 1:58 - 2:01
    fish and earthworms catch hooks
  • 2:01 - 2:04
    we fly through the sea and navigate the skies
  • 2:04 - 2:07
    flowers grow in the sand, rain falls over the desert
  • 2:07 - 2:10
    now dreams are for real because we dream when we’re awake
  • 2:10 - 2:13
    and that dream is assured, and that’s how it reproduces
  • 2:13 - 2:16
    and finally innocence doesn’t hide away from lights.
  • 2:16 - 2:19
    Food scarcity turns out to be delicious
  • 2:19 - 2:23
    because we have our bellies full of butterflies.
  • 2:23 - 2:26
    The galaxy reveals its hidden region
  • 2:26 - 2:29
    and it seems that in Earth life begins.
  • 2:33 - 2:39
    The moon goes for a walk following your pupils
  • 2:39 - 2:45
    night shines like the first time after you look at it.
  • 2:45 - 2:51
    No one knows anymore how to become happy through sorcery
  • 2:51 - 2:56
    because of you and your eyes.
  • 2:57 - 3:03
    And at the military academy they (now) teach medicine
  • 3:03 - 3:09
    and bankers give housing and food.
  • 3:09 - 3:16
    No one knows anymore how to become happy through sorcery
  • 3:16 - 3:20
    because of you and your eyes.
