Cuántas Veces Al Día
Silvio Rodriguez
How Many Times a Day
What silence is guilty of a man's death?
What silence in us has hung the innocent?
What cursed silence has blinded a name?
How many times a day do we deserve death?
Don't look around anymore.
You are it, don't look around anymore.
It's not the one behind, you are it.
It's not the one beside you, no,
it's you yourself, yeah,
the one who smiles right, the one who knows when to be quiet.
How many times a day?
How many times a day?
How many times a day
do we deserve death?
What learned silence keeps us alive?
What timely silence makes us wise?
What killer silence fills our bellies?
How many times a day do we deserve death?
Don't look around anymore...
How many times a day? ...
What silence is guilty of a man's death?...
Don't look around anymore...
How many times a day? ...
