when the sun shines on the mountains
and the night is on the run,
it's a new day, it's a new way, and i fly up to the sun
i can feel the morning sunlight.
i can smell the new-morn hay
i can hear gods voices calling
of my golden skylight way
o la paloma blanca
i'm just a bird in the sky
o la paloma blanca
over the mountains i fly
no one can take my freedom away
once i had my share of losing
once they locked me on a chain
yes, they tried to break my power
oh i still can feel the pain
o la paloma blanca
i'm just a bird in the sky
o la paloma blanca
over the mountains i fly
yes, no one can take my freedom away.
