Morte Mars
Ahora

que-es cuando estamos a solas

soy aquello que llamasteis el mar

en el fondo del baúl

 

Perdona

tengo plástico en las olas

y secretos que no puedo contar

ya no tengo el agua azul

Si no quieres ver

que el mundo acabe así

debes defender la vida que hay en mí

 

Tu voz hoy puede volar

Llegar hasta marte

Llevarme al camino de la luz

Lo puedes cambiar

Llegar hasta marte

Llevarme a la luz

Todo puede ser

Como quieras tú

 

Ahora

Cada resto que abandonas

Es un arma que bien puede quitar

Una vida a cara o cruz

 

Funciona

con las mentes que razonan

con la gente que algo quiere cambiar

con la gente como tú

que no quieres ver

que el mundo acabe así

y vas a defender

la vida que hay en mí

 

Tu voz hoy puede volar

Llegar hasta marte

Llevarme a la luz

Lo puedes cambiar

Llegar hasta marte

Llevarme a la luz

 

 

Tu voz hoy puede volar

Llegar hasta marte

Llevarme al camino de la luz

Todo puede ser

Como quieras tú

Now

what-is when we are alone

I am what you called the sea

at the bottom of the trunk

 

Forgives

I have plastic in the waves

and secrets that I can’t tell

I don’t have blue water anymore

If you don’t want to see

the world ends like this

you must defend the life in me

 

Your voice today can fly

Get to mars

Take me to the path of light

You can change it

Get to mars

Take me to the light

All can be

As you want

 

Now

Every rest you leave

It is a weapon that you can well remove

A life to face or cross

 

Works

with the minds that reason

with people that something wants to change

with people like you

you don’t want to see

the world ends like this

and you will defend

the life in me

 

Your voice today can fly

Get to mars

Take me to the light

You can change it

Get to mars

Take me to the light

 

 

Your voice today can fly

Get to mars

Take me to the path of light

All can be

As you want

Spain in Junior Eurovision

Spain was one of the 16 countries participating in the first Junior Eurovision competition in 2003.

In her short stint in the contest, it won one first, two second and a fourth place. 2006 was her last participation. Nevertheless, the interest of the people in the competition was high despite the absence of the country. In 2019, after 13 whole years, Spanish public television decided to return to the competition.

Antes muerta que sencilla, the song that Maria Isabel won for Spain in 2004, is still considered the most commercial winning song in the history of children’s Eurovision.
