Tradition

When a tradition gets enough
Strength to continue for centuries
You just can't eradicate it in a day
Let's preserve the ancient traditions

Tradition must be passed on from generation
In generation, let it be written in every heart
And it is disclosed with emotion, Preserving the structure
From the root, and not wanting to change it with the excuse of modernism
Or fashion

When a tradition gets enough
Strength to continue for centuries
You just can't eradicate it in a day
Let's preserve the ancient traditions

San Juan, La Candelaria, among others, are traditions transformed
That the black Africans brought, and that the invaders called conquerors
They snatched, to transform it to their convenience, let's enact
The tradition of worshiping Pachamama, Sue and Shia
Let us proudly say that ancestral traditions are the best

When a tradition gets enough
Strength to continue for centuries
You just can't eradicate it in a day
Let's preserve the ancient traditions
