Mapa Tesoro
Nicolás Ibarburu
Treasure Map
I learned to listen
To the song of the wind
Out of necessity
Like breathing
And what I heard
Became a sailboat
To navigate through storms
Of darkness
We must forgive
And it's for oneself
There's no need to carry
Someone else's sorrows
And what I let go
Became more alive
We can't cage what
Is meant to fly
That's why I want you here
Flowing close to me
That's why I went to find you
On the other side of the sea
It was to rebuild
Everything that is unseen
But felt in the beating
With all the immensity
I recognized you
Among so many people
And I saw you laugh
Drunk with illusion
And what I dreamed
Became a path
That joined in the crystalline trill
Of the same song
I knew how to shipwreck
Building a boat
I learned to pray
Lost at sea
And the map I found
Became treasure
Merged into the gold of the eyes
That saw you grow
