Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Árboles Bajo El Mar by Vivir Quintana from Spanish to English.
Sembré todas mis semillas
I sowed all my seeds
En árboles bajo el mar
In trees under the sea
Sembré todas mis semillas
I sowed all my seeds
En gritos de libertad
In shouts of freedom
Y que todas las espinas
And all the thorns
Que traje del ultramar
That I brought from overseas
Regué flores sin espinas
I watered thornless flowers
Nacieron en Yucatán
That were born in Yucatán
Sembré todas mis semillas
I sowed all my seeds
En árboles bajo el mar
In trees under the sea
Sembré todas mis semillas
I sowed all my seeds
En gritos de libertad
In shouts of freedom
Quité todas las espinas
I removed all the thorns
Que traje del ultramar
That I brought from overseas
Quité todas las espinas
I removed all the thorns
Rompe la tierra, el paso que arrastra muerte
Break the earth, the step that drags death
Si el ciclo se cumple, la vida de nuevo vuelve
If the cycle is fulfilled, life returns anew
Aun en la tempestad, no se detiene
Even in the storm, it doesn't stop
El cause sigue fluyendo como la sangre que ofrende este vientre
The course keeps flowing like the blood offered by this womb
Dentro de los ojos, el inciendo sigue creciendo
Within the eyes, the fire keeps growing
Ira contenida, la suma de los recuerdos
Contained anger, the sum of memories
Tantas heridas que supuran por tantos actos violentos
So many wounds that ooze from so many violent acts
Pero el corazón no se rinde, sigue creyendo
But the heart doesn't give up, it keeps believing
Ofrendo este verso, lanzo mi oración al viento
I offer this verse, I throw my prayer to the wind
Pido a los ancestros, que nos guíen en tiempos inciertos
I ask the ancestors to guide us in uncertain times
Respiro profundo y vuelvo a caminar lento
I take a deep breath and walk slowly again
Respiro profundo y vuelvo a mi propio tiempo
I take a deep breath and return to my own time
