The land where we raised towers

Let me explain where we are coming from We are not very different from you We were born where the sun always shines We are children of the desert We are a fighting people, we fought for our land. We defeated the Spaniards and we defeated the desert too We were the cradle of the revolution Without fear of anything Without fear of anyone We are the land where we raised towers Sister cities call themselves one Once united by their thirteen lagoons Time and politics divided the land But never our people We are a fighting people, we fight for our land We have Christ watching over us from on high And who in 1939 flew from Mexico City to New York in only 10 hours. The conqueror of the Sky We are the land where we raised towers We are nobility, equality and strength We are the grandchildren of those natives who couldn´t be defeated. We are a fighting people, we fight for our land And we do not allow anyone to want to tread on us. We are dust, wind and we are sun. We are the granddaughters of the women who couldn´t be taken away. We are the land where we raised towers
