| Yo no canto por cantar
ni por tener buena voz canto porque la guitarra tiene sentido y razón tiene corazón de tierra y alas de palomita es como el agua bendita santiguas glorias y penas aquàse encajó mi canto como dijiera Violeta guitarra trabajadora con olor a primavera Que no es guitarra de ricos ni cosa que se parezca mi canto es de los andiamos para alcanzar las estrellas que el canto tiene sentido cuando palpita en las venas del que morirá cantado las verdades verdaderas no las lisonjas fugazes ni las famas extranjeras sino el canto de una lonja hasta el fondo de la tierra Ahàdonde llega todo y donde todo comienza canto que ha sido valiente siempre será canción nueva siempre será canción nueva siempre será canción nueva "I don't sing for love of singing or to show off my voice but for the statements made by my honest guitar for its heart is of earth and like the dove it goes flying tenderly as holy water blessing the brave and the dying so my song has found a purpose as Violetta Parra would say yes, my guitar is a worker shining and smelling of spring my guitar is not for killers greedy for money and power but for the people who labour so that future may flower for a song takes on a meaning when its own heartbeat is strong sung by a man who will die singing truthfully singing his song I don't sing for adulation or so that strangers may weep I sing for a far strip of country narrow but endlessly deep in the earth in which we begin in the earth in which we end brave songs will give birth to a song which will always be new |
