Original lyrics by Nadja Lopez - Vargas Musical arrangements: Veronica Arcila Arrangements for Warmi: Veronica Arcila Musical arrangements for this version: WARMI (London - UK) WARMI are: Veronica Arcila: Vox-guitar-percussion Ingrid Rueda: B vocal- percussion Phaxsi Coca: Windpipes, B vocal Vicki Cespedes: Windpipes, B vocal Renu Hossain: Percussion B vocals Paloma Palomino: Charango, B vocals London - UK Note by Nadja: I wrote this song in 2007, it has been interpreted by different musicians who made their own versions and even changed some of the original lyrics to make it more romantic or folkloric, thanks to the music of Koguiwa, Cumbe, Warmi, Layla Kamlani and Veronica Arcila for making such beautiful covers of this song. The lyrics talk about the nostalgic feeling of the indigenous people and farmers in my country (Colombia)that have to abandoned their land to survive the war, “terratenientes” (paramilitaries) and the big companies taking over their territories; this song is about healing and about bringing your heart back to the waters of the land to be healed. An homage to my ancestors, Indigenous people and farmers of Colombia!
