Nací de Un Rio
Catherine Vergnes
I Was Born from a River
If you could feel at least
A little piece of what I feel
If you could talk to the wind
And I tell you my melodies
You would understand why I went through
So many hours in front of the river
Promising to sing songs
That will never be forgotten
If you knew they were talking
My guitar with the river
From their whispers I stole my trill
Among those verses that were wings
They were carved in their torrent
My artisan hands
So that when the strings sound
You can hear my soul
I was born from a river that is almost mine
And I went from north to south
Wherever I go, I take it with me
Maybe I'm from Paysandú
I was born from a river that is almost mine
And I went from north to south
Wherever I go, I take it with me
Maybe I'm from Paysandú
If you could see my gaze
That crossed the horizon
I heard someone shout my name
Some night on the other side
You would know that I would never give
A step to the side
Until we return it to the river
Everything you have given me
I was born from a river that is almost mine
And I went from north to south
Wherever I go, I take it with me
Maybe I'm from Paysandú
I was born from a river that is almost mine
And I went from north to south
Wherever I go, I take it with me
Maybe I'm from Paysandú
