Good morning, afternoon and evening to this music community, we were a little absent here for work, but we came back with a song that we thought was going to be easy but really not, we will explain why.
Venezuela is a popular Venezuelan song, with lyrics and music by the Spaniards Pablo Herrero Ibarz and José Luis Armenteros Sánchez, performed by several well-known artists, including Mirla Castellanos, Simón Díaz, Luis Silva and other renowned artists.
Venezuelans consider this song as a national anthem, because it is very special, not only for its melody but also for its impressive lyrics, which have a meaning for every person inside or outside Venezuela who loves their country.
Llevo tu luz y tu aroma en mi piel
Y el cuatro en el corazón
Llevo en mi sangre la espuma del mar
Y tu horizonte en mis ojos
No envidio el vuelo ni el nido al turpial
Soy como el viento en la miez
Siento el caribe como a una mujer
Soy así, ¿qué voy a hacer?
Soy desierto, selva, nieve y volcán
Y el andar dejo una estela
Del rumor del llano en una canción
Que me desvela
La mujer que quiero tiene que ser
Corazón, fuego y espuelas
Con la piel tostada como una flor
De Venezuela
Con tu paisaje y mis sueños me iré
Por esos mundos de Dios
Y tus recuerdos al atardecer
Me harán más corto el camino
Entre tus playas quedó mis niñez
Tendida al viento y al sol
Y esa nostalgia que sube a mi voz
Sin querer se hizo canción
De los montes quiero la inmensidad
Y del río la acuarela
Y de ti los hijos que sembrarán
Nuevas estrellas
Y si un día tengo que naufragar
Y el tifón rompe mis velas
Enterrad mi cuerpo cerca del mar
En Venezuela
I carry your light and your scent on my skin
And the four in my heart
I carry in my blood the foam of the sea
And your horizon in my eyes
I don't envy the flight nor the nest to the turpial
I'm like the wind in my mind
I feel the Caribbean like a woman
I am like this, what am I going to do?
I am desert, jungle, snow and volcano
And walking I leave a trail
Of the rumor of the plain in a song
That keeps me awake
The woman I love has to be
Heart, fire and spurs
With skin toasted like a flower
From Venezuela
With your landscape and my dreams I'll go
Through those worlds of God
And your memories at sunset
Will make the road shorter for me
My childhood was left among your beaches
Tended to the wind and the sun
And that nostalgia that rises in my voice
Unintentionally became a song
From the mountains I want the immensity
And from the river the watercolor
And from you the children that will sow
New stars
And if one day I have to be shipwrecked
And the typhoon breaks my sails
Bury my body near the sea
In Venezuela
When we say that it was a little difficult to record it, it is because in the second stanza when he says "between your beaches was my childhood, lying in the wind and the sun and that nostalgia that today rises to my voice unintentionally became a song" reminded Andy that throughout his childhood he shared with his family the wonderful beaches of Venezuela, Mochima National Park and Morrocoy, places that he has not visited for a long time due to the situation, however also in a part of the video you can see how he breaks down a little in that part as it also reminded him how we have thought about going to work in different lands than ours, but nevertheless we continue betting on a beautiful country that has seen us grow and in which we have been immensely happy. Finishing the song was a challenge but nevertheless we did it with a lot of love, with the same love we feel for our country and that every day that passes gives us the strength to continue insisting here, without forgetting (and it was also a reason for feeling in this song) all the relatives we have outside, echándole pichón as we say here, which means striving hard (for those who do not understand the phrase) to achieve their dreams and goals.
We definitely want to dedicate this song to all Venezuelans who are in this community, inside or outside of Venezuela and remind them that Yes you can! Keep going forward with your projects that this, our country will always be there to welcome us with open arms.
