Sunday Song - Yo Canto al Señor

I looked for other Quechua covers of American pop songs but it seems that "The Way You Make Me Feel" is the only American pop song ever recorded in Quechua.

Siembra (the andean catholic music group that sang at FyA 44's anniversary mass) is back singing "Yo Canto al Señor" (I sing to the Lord). It's a joyful of song of praise and gratitude. We have life, and that life demands to live. Praises be!


Translation after the jump.



Yo canto al Señor, mi Dios creador. (2)
Por la vida, nuestra vida, que hoy quiere vivir (2)

 Las cosas lindas que nos regala la madre tierra hay que contar. (2)
Por la alegría de los colores que nos animan a continuar (2)

Por la gente de mi país, por los que aman sin condición (2)
Por los que luchan, los que se entregan por una patria con dignidad. (2)

Y por las manos que nos abrazan por el cariño y la bondad. (2)
Por la ternura y la exigencia por el consuelo y la libertad. (2)

I sing to the Lord, my God the Creator. (2)
For life, our life, that wants to live today (2)


We have tell of the beautiful things that mother earth gives us. (2)
For the joy of colors that encourage us to continue (2)

For the people of my country, for those who love unconditionally (2)
For those who struggle, those who give of themselves for a homeland with dignity. (2)

And for the hands that embrace us for love and kindness. (2)
For the tenderness and the demand for comfort and freedom. (2)
