Tradition lyrics

When a tradition gets enough Strength to continue for centuries You just can't eradicate it in a day Let's preserve the ancient traditions Tradition must be passed on from generation In generation, let it be written in every heart And it is disclosed with emotion, Preserving the structure From the root, and not wanting to change it with the excuse of modernism Or fashion When a tradition gets enough Strength to continue for centuries You just can't eradicate it in a day Let's preserve the ancient traditions San Juan, La Candelaria, among others, are traditions transformed That the black Africans brought, and that the invaders called conquerors They snatched, to transform it to their convenience, let's enact The tradition of worshiping Pachamama, Sue and Shia Let us proudly say that ancestral traditions are the best When a tradition gets enough Strength to continue for centuries You just can't eradicate it in a day Let's preserve the ancient traditions
