Hombre
José María Napoleón
Man
Man with a sad facade
Give a good face to time
Don't be almost sea, nor almost river
Either be sea, or river, or nothing
Man of medium stature
Give life to your hope
It's not better to rush
To walk distances
To walk distances
Man, if you call yourself a man
Don't interrupt your journey
Or you'll make this life a tomb
And the tomb a dwelling
If you're going to have a rose
You have to look at the thorn
If you don't know pain
You won't know joy
Don't ask the Lord
Man to give you a house
Be more thankful
That you have life and work
What good is your voice
Why do you want words
If you get scared at the slightest
Movement of rough waves
Movement of rough waves
Man, if you call yourself a man
Don't interrupt your journey
Or you'll make this life a tomb
And the tomb a dwelling
If you're going to have a rose
You have to look at the thorn
If you don't know pain
You won't know joy
The one who seems more of a man
Or the one who shouts the most and scares
But the one who has in his voice
The truth of his word
Not the one with more women
Or the one who drinks the most and endures
But the one who has only one
And a thirst to quench it
And a thirst to quench it
Man, if you call yourself a man
Don't interrupt your journey
Or you'll make this life a tomb
And the tomb a dwelling
If you're going to have a rose
You have to look at the thorn
If you don't know pain
You won't know joy
