Del abuelo Ovidio
Alejandro Balbis
From Grandpa Ovidio
The day darkened when Ovidio died
In my childhood mind, everything turned upside down
Relatives in different situations, others always there for support
Even though I was young, I understood that differentiation
Our father crying, the guitar is gone
My mother and I are no longer the same, I understand her pain today
Parents, children, and grandparents are just an ordinary family
Even though I was young, I understood my role
Because I can cry, because I can laugh
When the world shrinks and the flower withers before dying
When the world shrinks and the flower withers before dying
Grandpa left, a paper virgin
Uncle Alberto and his deep voice, everything breathes religion
In the times of May yesterday, a revolutionary standing
He was a man with all the qualities that I understood later
They say he's no longer here like so many others
In a dream, I saw him walking down Juan Polie
And he told me not to shrink, everyone pays now or later
Even if the other is strong, don't back down
Now I can cry, now I can laugh
And learn from life that one withers before dying
And learn from life that one withers before dying
And learn from this life, before dying and learn
And learn and learn and learn oh, ohhh
