Ay La Marea
Silvio Rodriguez
Oh The Tide
The moon is swelling the chest of the sea
don't go out today, don't go out today on your boat.
Don't go out today if you don't want to capsize
because the sea is, because the sea is breathing.
Oh! the tide
oh!, breathing.
Oh! the tide
ohhhhh!, breathing
Oh!, the tide.
What it gives you, what it gives you for you
paint it blue, paint it pale and soft.
What I give, what I give once
if I don't give it inside me it runs out.
Oh! the tide...
Outside of me a star rehearses its light
dentro of me, the night is shining.
Outside of me a star rehearses its light
dentro of me the sea becomes impatient.
Oh! the tide...
