One of our favorite Honduran musicians is singer/songwriter Polache. He often sings about Honduras, and this song, "Mirá a Honduras" is very popular lately. This song is especially popular among folks who want to remind Hondurans that Honduras can be more than just another country ruled by corruption. The song takes on extra significance this month as we gear up for elections on November 29.
Have a listen!
Mirá a Honduras
Que no te tapen los ojos, Ojos con la corrupción y la incomprensión, la indiferencia y la delincuencia que con frequencia amigo uno se encuentra en esta nación, ponele mucho atención a esta canción de corazón, es más lo bueno que aquí tenemos más los que queremos, creemos en esta tierra que es una bendición
CORO
Mirá a Honduras con otros ojos que esta es tu tierra
Descubrí que al mirarla con otros ojos vas a merecerla
Mirá a Honduras con otros ojos, tenés que quererla
Descubrí que al mirarla con otros ojos, vas a merecerla.
Laralala…
Que no te tapen los ojos, la desforestación y contaminación, la pobreza, injusticia y bajeza, que con frequencia amigo uno se encuentra en esta nación, ponele mucha atención a esta canción de corazón, es más la riqueza, grandeza, nobleza, y más la belleza que hay en esta tierra que es un bendción.
CORO BIS
Translation:
Look at Honduras
Don’t let them cover your eyes, see the corruption, and the incomprehension, the indifference and delinquency that with frequency friend one finds in this nation, pay much attention to this song from the heart, it’s more the good that we have here, more the ones that we love, we believe in this land that is a blessing.
CHORUS
Look at Honduras with other eyes ‘cuz it’s your land
Discover that to look at it with other eyes you’re going to deserve it.
Look at Honduras with other eyes, you have to love it
Discover that to look at it with other eyes you’re going to deserve it.
Laralala….
Don’t let them cover your eyes, the deforestation, and contamination, the poverty, injustice and lowness, that with frequency friend one finds in this nation, pay much attention to this song of the heart, it’s more the richness, grandness, nobleness, and more the beauty that is in this land that is a blessing.
