Allá Vienen from Ayni by Ale Canque

The song is about the turmoil in Venezuela as Trump’s navy looms, cloaked in the guise of fighting drug rings while seeking the nation’s rich oil reserves. Amidst the chaos, ordinary people wonder how much more suffering they can endure as the sound of war echoes through the waves.

Today I see on the coast
Boats that come to stare
After so much suffering
What else will they take from us?

Oh sea, oh sea
The waves tell my truth
The narco talk is lies
The oil is what they seek

My family on the ground
Crying for what didn't happen
The echoes of war
Whisper mercilessly

Oh sea, oh sea
The waves tell my truth
The promises are lies
And the pain doesn't go away

Whether they come with speeches
Or if they invent a thousand reasons
Even if the ships arrive
My soul will resist

The shadows of the past
Teach me to fight
Woman of this wounded land
I will never stop loving

Oh sea, oh sea
The waves tell my truth
I am a mother of this land
And my voice will remain here.

Lyrics

Hoy veo en la costa
Barcos que vienen a mirar
Después de tanto sufrimiento
¿Qué más nos van a quitar?

Oh mar, oh mar
Las olas cuentan mi verdad
Lo de narcos son mentiras
Es el petróleo que buscarán

Mi familia en el suelo
Llorando por lo que no fue
Los ecos de la guerra
Susurran sin piedad

Oh mar, oh mar
Las olas cuentan mi verdad
Las promesas son mentiras
Y el dolor no se va

Aunque vengan con discursos
Aunque inventen mil razones
Aunque lleguen los barcos
Mi alma va a resistir

Las sombras del pasado
Me enseñan a luchar
Mujer de esta tierra herida
Nunca dejaré de amar

Oh mar, oh mar
Las olas cuentan mi verdad
Soy madre de esta tierra
Y mi voz seguirá acá.
