let us gather in a flourishing way
contentos llenos de fuerza to vida
giving nacimientos to fragrant rios
dulces frescos verdes turquoise strong
carne de nuestros hijos rainbows 
let us gather in a flourishing way
en la luz y en la carne of our heart to toil
tranquilos in fields of blossoms
cielo de calor and wusdom to meet us
where we toil siempre
in the garden of our struggle and joy
let us offer our hearts a saludar our águila rising
freedom
a celebrar
- Juan Felipe Herrera -
"If you light a lamp for someone else,
it will also brighten your own path.”
“Ours is the responsibility to keep our
lights bright for others to see and follow.”
