Com un arbre nu
Lluís Llach
Like a Bare Tree
Like a bare tree,
like a drawing made by the wind,
like a bare tree,
I, the bird.
Like from the sea a harbor,
silent world,
fall of love,
like from the sea a harbor,
I, the ship.
The infinite all at once
and the absolute silence.
We are the whole world
and also nothingness.
Close your eyes: we are spirit.
Open your eyes: we are the body.
We are the sunlight,
from the night the darkness.
Like a blank book
where my name is written.
Like a blank book,
I, that word.
Like a song,
sound play
tone play.
Like a song,
I, the chord.
