Yo Soy Quien Soy

I Am Who I Am

I am who I am
And I don't look like anyone
I fit in the countryside
And the whistle of its waters

My companions
Are my good animals
Goats and mules
And the occasional old ox

A blue raven
And an orange-colored pig
Sang together
How beautiful is the party

And an ugly alligator
Sang to a skunk
Garden of flowers
Don't give me so much smell

The coyote is cunning
And the badger is sly
Gentle and noble the lamb
And the pig snout
The rogue is sly
And the rancher simple
And the Indian cowboy
Lazy and gluttonous

Sometimes I wish to be
A turtle to run
A horse to fly
A mountain to travel

A fish to work
Short to grow
Drunk to not drink
Donkey to not carry
Brave to not fight
And faithful like a woman

Since this cannot be
I endure, what can I do

I am who I am
And I don't look like anyone
I fit in the countryside
And the whistle of its waters

My companions
Are my good animals
Goats and mules
And the occasional old ox
