En un barrio que hay en la ciudad [English translation]

He is a child like all the others,

but he uses two canes to walk.

He’s a child and he cannot play

in some part of the town.

A new day is born and what does it bring?

He’s a child and he cannot dream.

All his friends will run fast

and he’ll always be the last one.

I never heard him saying: Why?

Someone like he cannot do it.

He’s crying in solitude.

He’s a child and he cannot enjoy life.

He doesn’t know what it means to dream,

he only lives in the world of sorrows…

He uses two canes to walk

in some part of the town.

You pass him by and you don’t notice him,

yours eyes meet, but you run away from him.

You go on and you don’t know

that he needs you. Help him!

I never heard him saying: Why?

Someone like he cannot do it.

He’s crying in solitude.

He’s a child and he cannot enjoy life.
