Dónde Está El Que Yo Quiero?

Quilapayún Quilapayún

Where Is The One I Want?

Because bitter rains
Fill the air with tears
Death covers our faces
Life has become sarcasm.

Where is the one I want,
Where is he?
He left through the streets,
He walked away,
He was surrounded by
Metal dogs
And in dark thickets
He got entangled.

With his hands open,
His simple gaze,
With his serene forehead,
He got lost.
With his serene forehead
He got lost...

This cloudy land
Bent down.
Lowered its head,
Became silent.
This land of fire
Went out.
Continent and bell,
It broke.

He fell to his knees
And the winds screamed;
The waters dried up
From crying.
The waters dried up
From crying...

I wonder if the smile
That gives itself exists.
I wonder about the gestures,
The fog answers me.
I no longer know if I want something,
I no longer know if I am blind,
I only feel the silence
And the salt of the stone.

Where am I, where do I look
If there is no sky or land?
The lights have gone out
And I can't find the trace.
With his erased steps
By a burning noise
I have stayed in the middle
Of a trembling without waiting.

Where is the one I want,
Where is he?

Where is the one I loved,
Where is she?

Where are our children?
Where are the ones we loved?
Where, where are their eyes?
Where, where are their eyes?

Run deer-man, run
The hunter is looking for you with his dogs.
Run deer-man, run!
Run deer-man, run...

Run hare-man, run,
The hunter is looking for you with his dogs.
Run hare-man, run!
Run, hare-man, run...

Run rat-man, run.
The dogs can kill you.
Tear yourself away from death!
Hide underground!

Because bitter rains
Fill the air with tears
Death covers our faces
Life has become sarcasm.
