Cuántas veces he pensado ya
How many times have I thought already
Que mi mundo de cabeza va
That my world is upside down
Hacia un mar con fondo de mentiras
Towards a sea of lies beneath
Hipocresía
Hypocrisy
Cuántas veces no habré yo querido
How many times have I wanted
Ayudar en este mundo mío
To help in this world of mine
A todos esos que mueren y sufren como tú.
All those who die and suffer like you.
El mundo que soñé
The world that I dreamed of
Tendrá mil corazones
Will have a thousand hearts
Para poder latir
To be able to beat
Tendrá un millón de amores
It will have a million loves
El mundo que soñé
The world I dreamed of
Tendrá un millón de flores
It will have a million flowers
Mil niños que serán
A thousand children who will be
Mañana grandes hombres
Tomorrow's great men
Con los ojos bien abiertos mirarán
With their eyes wide open they'll look
Tú les salvaras
You will save them
Para quien el mismo sol adora
For whom the very sun adores
Ya no hay razas, los colores sobran
No races now, colors are in excess
Porque el corazón lo puso el mismo
Because the heart was given by the same one
Tu Dios y el mío
You, God, and mine
Para quien esboza una sonrisa
For whoever brings a smile
Porque la fortuna que no avisa
Because fortune never warns
Le rebela que en su mañana a ti te ve
It reveals that in their tomorrow, they see you
El mundo que soñé
The world that I dreamed
Se vivirá en colores
Will live in colors
Ya nunca escucharé
I will never hear again
Disparos de cañones
The sound of cannons
El mundo que soñé
The world that I dreamed
Tendría más justicia
Would have more justice
Con todos esos que la guerra es su noticia
With all those for whom war is their headline
Con los ojos bien abiertos mirarán
With eyes wide open, they will look
Tú les salvarás
You will save them
Cómo ignorar, cómo se puede estar
How can we ignore, how can we stand
Indiferente así, inmóviles así
Indifferent like this, motionless like this
Con esos niños que no crecerán jamás
With those children who will never grow up
Como puede ser, escuchar sin conmoverse
How can it be, to listen without being moved
Regalemos una cosa al mundo
Let's give the world something
Un montón de amor y paz
A whole lot of love and peace
El mundo que soñé, oh, oh, oh...
The world I dreamed of, oh, oh, oh...
El mundo que soñé
The world that I dreamed
Tendría corazón
Would have a heart
El mundo que soñé
The world that I dreamed
Se llamaría amor
Would be called love
Si caminas de mi manos puede ver
If you walk hand in hand with me you can see
El mundo que soñé
The world that I dreamed
