Quiero Cantarte Un Beso

Silvio Rodriguez Silvio Rodriguez

I Want to Sing You a Kiss

I want to sing you a kiss,
but everything gets confused
among a million bones
and ruins.
So the kiss flees
with eyes of reproach,
while the blood flows
through the nights.

Death has spread
across the meadow.
What awaits the one who sowed it?
They say the responsible one
never wore horns,
but an impeccable suit
in hell.

And the need returns
to review where I am,
if humanity exists or not
and if it has been seen today.

The sphere agonizing
every day explodes
and no one is looking
that it's broken.
Thirty-five thousand children
were killed that day.
The TV hasn't even blinked yet.

And the need returns
to review where I am,
if humanity exists or not
and if it has been seen today.

Great illusionists
with feats of showmanship,
say that cowards are altruistic.
While the powerful one
orders more and swallows more
and the little one, the rascal,
always pays.

And the need returns
to review where I am,
if humanity exists or not
and if it has been seen today.

I thought nobody was there,
that nothing was answering,
but love was still watching.
And the old sentinel,
in the middle of the desert,
lit infinite candles
for the dead.
