Lost in Translation

[asterroc]

I'm looking for a full translation of "Nuestro Himno," the new Spanish-language version of The Star-Spangeled Banner (National Anthem). More info:

• Where I heard about it


• Times article (including an mp3 of it)


• Political cartoon


• Reference on author


• Partial translation

But the thing is, I think something that holds national identity value such as the National Anthem shouldn't be trivialized by 'remixes.' And I think it would be disingenuous to call it that since it's being propped up in this political discussion by those that want to legalize millions of people who snuck into this country.

It's also that the border controversy is being labeled (by those again that have snuck in as illegals) as racism against Mexicans - which is why I think examining Mexican law is a necessary argument.

Bottom line is, it gives credibility to those arguments that illegals just came here for entitlements and not because they have any interest or loyalty to the values of the United States.

Also, if this article is true... eh, I just find that quite annoying.
