La Gente Hermosa

Interpretado por Pablo Rodríguez

(This song was originally written by my father in Spanish)

The tears of my heart,where do they flow
Along the way what will they show
They say our country is the only way
But I know across the sea is the land of fame
Because here is the old and new
And the words they say I know is not true
And so the eyes of my heart see what was here
But all I can feel is only my fear
As the blood spills along Malecón
Am I to be the son who is left alone
Or am I the one to bring new hope
To make a better way and find my new home
The explorers past say "es la gente hermosa"
But the natives of this new land call it "Samoa"
