Voy por la vida cantando
Rolando Alárcon
I go through life singing
I sang a song half thorn, half carnation. I sang it to the streams, I sang it for what...
I go through life singing
a song
that one summer night
the wind taught me.
To look at the captive
and give him comfort,
give breath to the afflicted
and to you, sincerity.
I go through life singing
and I don't know
if when summer comes
I'll be able to sing again.
I go through life singing
without fear.
The land of the roads
I feel it.
The light of souls emerges
that anticipates the truth.
The people ask for hope
and give sincerity.
I go through life singing
next to you.
The future is not distant
for you.
I go through life singing
under the sun
the song that the wind gave me
it took it away.
A woodcutter to his shadow
under a tree buried it,
and the shadow gave him life
and gave it the form of a flower.
I go through life singing
a song
that one summer night
the wind taught me.
