Como El Ave Solitaria

Alberto Cortez Alberto Cortez

Like The Lonely Bird

Like the lonely bird
I was born to sing,
it's an adventure for me
like a ripe fruit
that I enjoy savoring.
Long ago I let go of ties
with the familiar world.
I became a cicada
because of a guitar
and love for freedom.

I like to fly low
to sing loudly
to the wind, the sky, and the sea.
At night, lay in the trail
to count the stars
and see the dawn arrive
Like the lonely bird
I was born to sing.

Sometimes I'm like an outcast
I have to walk alone
Ah, the value of a friend
when offering shelter
when sharing bread
Almost always the soul
is in solidarity with friendship
because it values
the cost of each hour
of constant solitude.

I like to fly low
to sing loudly
to the wind, the sky, and the sea.
At night, lay in the trail
to count the stars
and see the dawn arrive
Like the lonely bird
I was born to sing.

I know well that it's necessary
the branch to nest.
My song in a rush
got tangled in some hair
and I didn't want to let go.
Even the lonely bird
can also be caught.
In the prison of some eyes
love put locks
and we both sang.

I like to fly low
to sing loudly
to the wind, the sky, and the sea.
At night, lay in the trail
to count the stars
and see the dawn arrive
Like the lonely bird
I was born to sing.
