La Linea [English translation]

There, in that corner of the world

Where the maquiladora* does not sleep

From a wasteland

The son of the sun was born

Whom the curandera wrapped**

With cloths and herbs she rubbed

the skin of that mulatto child

Skin which sprung feathers

Oh! What wonder is this!

What FTA caused***

From an imaginary line

From sifted chivi+

A moon eyed child

Sang words of flower

“This material world

Is just fleeting”

Corn flower

The sky is watching over you

Plain of fire

The earth which gave birth to you

Spirit of the earth

Spirit of the sea

Spirit of luck

Meant to wander

Corn flower

The sky is watching over you

Plain of fire

The earth which gave birth to you

Spirit of the earth

Spirit of the sea

Spirit of luck

Meant to wander
