Rio Marrón
Jorge Fandermole
Brown River
I can't lose you, woman of the river
Brown body, of the brown river
Hands like waves on the shore
That permanence
At the confluence
Forming the curved thighs,
Mirrors of a fleeting moon
Brown river,
Give me back the blood below
From your step the black lily
That arrived by your shore.
River, brown river
Carry in a fish this song
Someone is waiting for me
Facing the stars
Cause above
Brown river,
Animal of mud that flees
That like life flows
Never returning to the height
If I could go back in time
To see the clarity
In its face
And not miss a moment
Of tenderness, brown river.
The water that flows down is never the same
And when we remember we go to the sea
Because the past lies deep
And like love
Lasts a flood
Pain is a permanent flow
Blood its mirror
And life a reflection of the brown river
Brown river, give me back
Brown river,
And the sky that breaks
From here to the horizon
Submerged moonlight.
If I could go back in time
To see in the opacity of time gone
If that lost glow
Was life
Brown river.
