Zamba Del Angel (Zamba)

My mother said that when
Life takes me down the road to bread
And she's gone to watch over me
And her advice isn't there
Nor that light that blood knows how to give
There'll be a being behind me
With my shape and with wings
And that angel is called my good

She also said that angel
Invisible to everyone and also to me
The one in shadowy airs
With a wind in the soul
Would give me the truth in its sap
And so it was that surely
I set course for life
With the strength of the angel in my stride

Later, over time I went
For suns that lead to anxiety
But the angel wasn't there
I lost him in childhood
From school to home, time long gone
Loneliness of the attempt
To scream with dreams
The truth that in man never came to be

When the Moon on its journey
Breaks my nights into an angel of alcohol
I bleed out at the tables
And the light of a friend
Is the angel that guards my pain
And the street brings me together
With a different angel
With an ordinary man, like me

It hurts to know that the thing
I wanted as a child was skin of illusion
And that the angel walks
With the feet of exhaustion
That climbs us to life for the fight
And the story of the mother who one day
Gave us an angel to guide us with her love

Later, over time I went
For suns that lead to anxiety
But the angel wasn't there
I lost him in childhood
From school to my house, time long gone
Loneliness of the attempt
To scream with dreams
The truth that in man never came to be
