De Colores
From Conservapedia
"De Colores" is a popular folk-song, believed to have originated in Spain several hundred years ago. It is usually sung in Spanish. It was popularized during the immigrant worker movements of the early 20th century, demanding fair work conditions.[1]
It is the unofficial anthem of the United Farm Workers of America founded by Cesar Chavez. When singing this song, singers often hold hands and sway.
It became popular in the 1980s among liberals and Communists in Central and South America in the liberation theology movement.
Lyrics
- Of colors, colors
- the fields in the spring get dressed.
- Of colors, colors
- they are the pajarillos that come from outside.
- Of colors, colors
- it is the rainbow that we see shine.
- And for that reason the great loves
- of many colors, they (the colors) please me.
- And for that reason the great loves
- of many colors, they (the colors) please me.
- The rooster sings, sings the rooster
- with kiri, kiri, kiri, kiri, kiri.
- The hen, the hen
- with kara, kara, kara, kara, kara.
- The chicks, the chicks
- with pio, pio, pio, pio, pi.
- And for that reason the great loves
- of many colors, they (the colors) please me.
- And for that reason the great loves
- of many colors, they (the colors) please me.
- Of colors, colors
- in colors brilliant and fine is clothed the dawn.
- Of colors, colors
- They are the thousand reflections that the altresora sun.
- Of colors, colors
- the diamond gets dressed that we see shine.
- And for that reason the great loves
- of many colors, they (the colors) please me.
- And for that reason the great loves
- of many colors, they (the colors) please me.
