Esos Ojos Negros - Leon Gieco

Esos ojos negros que miraban

La poca esperanza del país

También se aprovecharon de la fe

Y la voluntad de vivir.

Esos ojos negros que miraban

Como se ganaba en el mundial

Estaban tejiendo en su retina

Una historia prohibida.

Que lastima que la gente no es tan sabia

De mirar solo a los ojos para la verdad saber

Y quitar respaldo popular si otra cosa

No se puede hacer.

Tarda un tiempo el pueblo

Para abrir sus puertas

Pero cuando la abre

Pone llave y te encierra.

Those black eyes that looked

The little hope of the country

They also took advantage of faith

And the will to live.

Those black eyes that looked

How did you win in the world cup

They were weaving on her retina

A forbidden story.

What a pity that people are not so wise

To look only into the eyes to know the truth

And remove popular support if something else

It can not be done.

It takes a while for the town

to open its doors

But when you open it

Put a key and lock you up.
