Que canten los niños [English translation]

May the children sing, may they lift their voice

May they make the world listen

May they unite their voices and reach the sun

The truth is in them.

May the children sing, may they live in peace

And those who suffer pain

May they sing for those who will not sing

Because they have muffled their voice.

I sing so that they let me live

I sing so that mother smiles

I sing because the sky is blue

And I sing so that they don't pollute the sea for me

I sing for those who do not have bread

I sing so that they preserve the flower

I sing so the world may be happy

I sing not to hear the cannon.

May the children sing, may they lift their voice

May they make the world listen

May they unite their voices and reach the sun

The truth is in them.

May the children sing, may they live in peace

And those who suffer pain

May they sing for those who will not sing

Because they have muffled their voice.

I sing so the garden may be green

And so they do not extinguish the sun for me

I sing for him who does not know how to write

And for him who writes verses of love

I sing so that my voice is heard

And to see if I make them think.

I sing because I want a happy world

And in case someone wants to hear me.

May the children sing, may they lift their voice

May they make the world listen

May they unite their voices and reach the sun

The truth is in them.

May the children sing, may they live in peace

And those who suffer pain

May they sing for those who will not sing

Because they have muffled their voice.

May the children sing, may they lift their voice

May they make the world listen

May they unite their voices and reach the sun

The truth is in them.

May the children sing, may they live in peace

And those who suffer pain

May they sing for those who will not sing

Because they have muffled their voice.

May the children sing, may they lift their voice

May they make the world listen

May they unite their voices and reach the sun

The truth is in them.

May the children sing, may they live in peace

And those who suffer pain

May they sing for those who will not sing

Because they have muffled their voice.
