La Conquista [English translation]

The wind awakened

While rousing the god of the sea

While the sun was yawning

The horizon was unable to sleep

Getting undressed with a sensual air

Were the cost and the littoral

Letting the fog fall to their feet

I thought I saw the Garden of Eden

And, when we set foot on dry land, I saw

Some people arrive, who, when they saw

Our clothes, they didn't know what to do

We have come to exchange

Your dreams for faith

Your gold to have

A god and a king to follow

War, death, destruction...

Our hymn, such bravery!

The soldier and the lord

Were excited by the conquest

And even though I never wanted to be like him,

I'll ask never for

Any other people to be conquered again

I want to ask for forgiveness

And to conquer your heart

I want to ask for forgiveness

In a battle, the first casualties

Are justice and love

I talk to you today,

Love and take care of your tradition

Today, I want your forgiveness

If you love your land, never, for any reason

Stop taking care of it
