La contradanza molecular de los átomos de la piedra mora
Alfredo Zitarrosa
The Molecular Contradance of the Atoms of the Dark Stone
(Polka)
An average countryman
Intellectual and Montevideo environment
Between a want and a don't want
He came to Vichadero
And there for the Black Cat
The auroras were droning
The molecular contradance
From the atoms of the Moorish stone
Everything is change and movement
He meditated carefully
And the tits are not still
If the calves lick
The night falls outside
Starry and without borders
And they are chopped in the barbecue areas
Capybara Milanese
They say that the ombú is eternal
Much more the Moorish stone
But a tree becomes stone
And a boleadora stone
And the true story
It is made by the poor of the world
In molecular contradance
With the atoms of the Moorish stone
Everything seems so still
Always the same, always obsolete
But here before it was a valley
And today there is a humble street
And where a people rises
Your unity as a lever
Can move the planet
And there will never be trumpets again
The molecular contradance of the atoms of the Moorish stone
