Sentidos

I want to tell you that today I also saw you
Among the faces of this big city
I saw you in the hands of a worker and in the passion of a nurse
I saw you in the eyes of that homeless person

I want to tell you that today I also felt
That your presence touched me
I felt your cold bare feet
In that child without hugs
I felt your unsheltered skin
Everything here names you, between light and shadow
You have my senses, like a surprised child

I want to tell you that today I also found you
Not only in the altars
Or in the silence of the temples
I saw you in the cry of the people
Intermingled in the cities
Everything here names you, between light and shadow
You have my senses, like a surprised child

I want to tell you that today I also heard you
In the hustle and bustle of the street
In the advice of a grandmother
In the teacher of a school
I heard your music in details

I want to tell you that today I also tasted
The taste of your company
Mate cocido and warm bread in that toothless smile
That was a delicacy for my days
Everything here names you, between light and shadow
You have my senses, like a surprised child

I want to tell you that today I also smelled you
That perfume of your hands
In a community dining room and in the kindness of an entrepreneur
I smelled you in the flowers and in the mud

I want to tell you that today I also found you
Not only in the altars
Or in the silence of the temples
I saw you in the cry of the people
Intermingled in the cities
Everything here names you, between light and shadow
You have my senses, like a surprised child

I want to tell you that today I also found you
Not only in the altars
Or in the silence of the temples
I saw you in the cry of the people
Intermingled in the cities
Everything here names you, between light and shadow
You have my senses, like a surprised child

Everything here names you
Dying, serving, being born, living
