《El Padre Antonio》歌词

[00:08:04] Father Antonio Texeira came from Spain

[00:08:04] Searching for new promises in this land

[00:08:04] He got to the jungle without any hope of becoming a bishop

[00:08:04] And in spite of the heat and the mosquitoes he talked about Christ

[00:08:04] The priest didn't do well at the Vatican

[00:08:04] Among papers and air conditioned dreams

[00:08:04] So he went to a small town in the middle of nowhere to give his weekly sermon

[00:08:04] For those in search for salvation

[00:08:04] Oh Oh Oh Oh

[00:08:04] Andrés Eloy Pérez is 10 years old

[00:08:04] He attends "Simon Bolívar " elementary school

[00:08:04] He still cannot recite the Holy Creed properly

[00:08:04] He loves the river playing soccer and playing hooky

[00:08:04] He's been given the task of altar boy at the Church

[00:08:04] With the hope that this connection will "fix him"

[00:08:04] And his family is very proud because they also believe

[00:08:04] That once you have one connected to God by default you connect them as well

[00:08:04] Bells are tolling one two three

[00:08:04] Of Father Antonio and his altar boy Andrés

[00:08:04] Bells are tolling again oh oh oh

[00:08:04] Of Father Antonio and his altar boy Andrés Andrés

[00:08:04] The Priest condemns violence

[00:08:04] He knows by experience that is not a solution

[00:08:04] He speaks to them of love and justice

[00:08:04] The news of God shining through his sermon

[00:08:04] War found the priest one Sunday in mass

[00:08:04] Handing out communion with his sleeves rolled up

[00:08:04] Half way through the Lord's Prayer the killer came in

[00:08:04] And without confessing his guilt fired at him

[00:08:04] Antonio fell holy bread in hand and without knowing why

[00:08:04] Andrés died at his side without ever meeting Pelé

[00:08:04] And between the screams and the astonishment agonizing

[00:08:04] Was the wooden Christ nailed to the wall

[00:08:04] And no one ever knew who the criminal was

[00:08:04] Who killed Padre Antonio and his altar boy Andrés

[00:08:04] But the bells still ring one two three

[00:08:04] For Father Antonio and his altar boy Andrés

[00:08:04] The bells are tolling

[00:08:04] Soneos：

[00:08:04] And Earth is going to shake

[00:08:04] For our America

[00:08:04] Oh Virgin Lady

[00:08:04] Who will save us now

[00:08:04] Central American

[00:08:04] Listen to them calling

[00:08:04] For my sister land

[00:08:04] People waking up

[00:08:04] For Antonio and Andrés

[00:08:04] Puente

[00:08:04] Hear it again

[00:08:04] People are celebrating

[00:08:04] On our new way

[00:08:04] Central American

[00:08:04] Let's go their calling us

[00:08:04] To celebrate

[00:08:04] Our identity

[00:08:04] Because people united

[00:08:04] Will never be defeated

[00:08:04] For a good priest

[00:08:04] Arnulfo Romero

[00:08:04] Of liberty

[00:08:04] For our America
