Caído en Sarajevo (Fallen at Sarajevo) is a song in Spanish about the sufferings of the innocent victims of war. |

Story Behind the Song
It was written by a friend Emil Groth and ARKA bandmember Daniel Duhart at the beginning of the 90's, shocked by the civil war that was ocurring in Yugoslavia at the time. Emil originally would sing the song accompanied by Daniel on guitar, and we liked it so much that in 1994 we asked him to lend it to us for our album "Ecos del Sistema" (Echoes of the System), where we recorded a first version. Now, nine years later, we recorded this new version, which is instrumentally and technically much more elaborate. We believe it manages to convey the drama of the innocent victims of war.
The band line-up on the recording is:
Daniel Duhart: guitars, backing vocals
Javier Duhart: vocals, bass guitar
Ignacio Meneses: drums
The recording was done on hard disk multitrack recording equipment.
Lyrics
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
Dime si aún estoy vivo
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
Hay dos niños destrozados
Al otro lado de la calle
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
No me dejes solo
Tengo miedo de morir
Esparcido, desangrado
En una calle de Sarajevo
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
No siento mis piernas
Y aún rugen los morteros
Esparciendo muerte
Sobre Sarajevo
Recuerdas Jan aquella piedra
Junto a la acequia del vecino
Donde nos sentábamos cuando niños
Por el cielo tranquila volaba
La luna ciega de su luz
Y hablábamos de la profunda acequia
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
Cuán lejos estaba la guerra
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
Cuán lejos estaba la muerte
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
Recuerdas Jan cómo soñamos
Sería el mundo, tú y yo
Adolescentes ingenuos
Entonces no había tanto odio
Nada parecía ser tan cruel
Ay cómo amábamos la vida entonces
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
Cuán lejos estaba la guerra
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
Cuán lejos estaba la muerte
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
No me dejes solo
Tengo miedo de morir
Esparcido, desangrado
En una calle de Sarajevo
Oh Jan oh Jan oh Jan
No siento la vida
Y aún rugen los morteros
Esparciendo llantos
Sobre Sarajevo
Sarajevo
