mira como juegan en la graba sin que les importe
look how they play in the gravel without a care,
quien los mire quien los juzgue
whoever watches, whoever judges,
solo quieren solo piden
they only want, they only ask for,
libertad
freedom,
como niños fuera de la escuela sin tarea
like kids out of school with no homework,
van saltando van llegando uno a uno
they're hopping, they're arriving one by one,
con sus globos asia el mundo
with their balloons toward the world,
quien los une?
who brings them together?
en el valle de magnolias
in the valley of magnolias,
bajo el cielo
under the sky.
estoy tan sola
I am so alone
cuatrocientos elefantes con sus trajes de diamantesvan marchando
four hundred elephants in their diamond suits are marching
su caleidoscopio de figuras y colores
their kaleidoscope of shapes and colors
que me invitan que me incitan a celebrar
that invite me, that urge me to celebrate
el confeti nunca pará
the confetti never stops
en el valle de magnolias
in the valley of magnolias
bajo el cielo estoy tan sola
under the sky, I am so alone
en la calle hay mariposas
in the street, there are butterflies
no existe el miedo
fear does not exist
en el valle de magnolias
in the valley of magnolias
bajo el cielo estoy tan sola
under the sky I am so lonely
en la calle hay mariposas
on the street there are butterflies
no existe el miedo
fear does not exist
