El Silencio de Los Cuervos
Alejandro Sanz
The Silence of the Crows
Every year that starts, I ask for a peaceful year
To teach those who scare
That fear always wins here
For the year that begins, I ask for gentle sounds
I ask for it to light up the hallway of echoes
I ask for us to learn to live by taking risks
Let’s set some limits on the bloodshed
And I want the Marine to become a Sailor... faith
I want it to take away your pain... faith
That the moment we change isn’t far away
From smoke to sighs, highways to trails, straight lines
That the silence of fears isn’t far away
That the morning of times doesn’t take too long, look
And for those who think we won’t see the end
I ask that you free us
That the silence of the crows isn’t far away
The world I want, I know I won’t see
I can only sing, let a thread of voice sound
And you’ll find the damn drum
We can’t stop the soldier at most
Teach him a color
Of how much more
Have you thought to swallow
It’s debatable, it’s your love
This year that’s coming in, what I want, love
Is to be without the sun rising.
