Notes: * The chorus is in Spanish and the non-English words in the verses are Guarani, an indigenous language of Paraguay. Speaking "new words" of other languages and other culture is often a manifestation of an open heart for other people in other parts of our world.*The still images, the video clips with 'evaluation copy' on them, and also the basic idea for the song, come from service time in Paraguay...real live attempts at 'changing the world' through love and understanding.*This is the shortened version of this song. To download the full (and much much better) version, click "http://h1.ripway.awardspace.com/porcausadeparaguay/SpeakNewWords 2.mp3"Without further ado, the lyrics...Mborayhu the concern, agape, the wings/With which we carry others on change's winds/ Produced by strength of heart, courage to stand out and do what I promised...and I promise to change myselfTo fight my complacency (caihue) and LIVE(Para luchar vas a necesitar...)Amor, alegría, paz, paciencia, benigndad, bondad, y la fe, Mansedumbre, Fuerza de corazon Templanza, Compromisoy mas q todo tenes q tener la voluntad de luchar tu caihueAvya...joy in every circumstance/In knowing exactly where I stand/Being satisfied that I'm fighting the fight/Satisfied with being that windblown light in the berry-black night/Py'a guapy is the lens through which I view the people in my way...knowing they can changeJerovia... Not afraid to take a leap/Knowing the goal is not out of reach/The other side of the gorge is in sight/ My dream is worth my sacrifice /I can take ridicule silently/I can still mend hearts when my own is broken Amor, alegría, paz, paciencia, benigdad, bondad, y la fe, mansedumbre, Fuerza de corazon templanza, Compromisoy mas q todo tenes q tener la voluntad de luchar tu caihueDonde vas? Q eliges por tu camino?Where you go and how you do it/ How you walk and where you step/ Whether you like it or not, there's an affectWhat use is an open mind if your heart is sealed shut?The willingness to change yourself gives you the power to change your worldTo change your world.Espero q hoy abres tu corazon a Nandejara...a Dios!

Nov 18, 2008 - Yo Ama. Someday when you have time though, you oughta rearrange the instruments so that they're in closer sync with the lyrics. I so love the video clips and snapshots though!
