Si Me Miras Tu
Marta Gómez
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 of 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 is crowned
Come, I want to paint you with the colors of sunset
The living flame that will engulf you
Dust you will be 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 holy stick
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
