Spain

Possible translation:

"The Crystal Gems/ Help you if you're in peril*/ And there is no problem/ That has no solution!/ That's why all the world, today, trusts/ Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl, and Steven!"

* The closest to a literal translation is "if you are bad", meaning "if you are in a bad situation" or "if you are feeling bad". The linking verb "estás" is translated as "to be", but relates to a current, recent and short term status, not the cronic status led by the translation.
