Si Me Miras Tú
Jose Alejandro Delgado
If You Look at Me
Come, I want to take you to the garden I made thinking of you
To the spell of dawn
Come choose fruits in my garden
Come, I want to tell you that in a palace at the bottom of the sea
I learned about gods of salt and coral
Come listen to songs I learned
Come, I want to tell you that there is no sadness or loneliness
That can burn the laughter and light
If you look at me, all the birds will fly
If you look at me, all the birds will fly
Come, I want to sing to you the melody that the wind sings
Announcing rain and melancholy
The joy of clouds and crowns
Come, I want to paint you with the colors of the sunset
The living flame that will engulf you
You will be dust for your rebirth
Come, I want to tell you that there is no sadness or loneliness
That can burn the laughter and light
If you look at me, all the birds will fly
If you look at me, all the birds will fly
And the butterflies will fly
The tuberoses and roses will fly
The houses and things will fly
The lovely cayenne peppers will fly
The windows, the corners will fly
Oranges and tangerines will fly
The eucalyptus, the palo santo will fly
The laurel and the amaranth will fly
Horses and chameleons will fly
Dogs, wolves, and lions will fly
Guitars and bandolas will fly
Trinitarias and poppies will fly
If you look at me, all the birds will fly
