Aquarela
En los mapas del cielo, el sol siempre es amarillo
y la lluvia o las nubes no pueden velar tanto brillo
ni los árboles nunca podrán ocultar el camino,
de la luz hacia el bosque profundo de nuestro destino.
Esa hierba tan verde, se ve como un manto lejano,
que no puede escapar, que se puede alcanzar, sólo con volar.
Siete mares he surcado, siete mares color azul,
yo soy nave, voy navegando, y mi vela eres tú...
Bajo el agua veo peces de colores,
van donde quieren, no los mandas tú...
Por el cielo, va cruzando, por el cielo color azul,
un avión que vuela alto, diez mil metros de altitud,
desde tierra lo saludan con las manos,
se va alejando, no se dónde va, no se dónde va...
Sobre un tramo de vía, cruzando un paisaje de ensueño,
en un tren que me lleva de nuevo a ser muy pequeño,
de una América a otra, tan sólo es cuestión de un segundo,
basta con desearlo y podrás recorrer todo el mundo...
Un muchacho que trepa, que trepa en lo alto de un muro,
si se siente seguro, verá su futuro con claridad...
Y el futuro, es una nave, que por el cielo volará,
a Saturno, después a Marte, nadie sabe dónde llegará,
si le ves venir, si te trae amores, no te los robes sin apurar.
Aprovecha, los mejores, que después no volverán.
La esperanza, jamás se pierde, los malos tiempos pasarán,
piensa que el futuro es una acuarela y tu vida un lienzo,
que colorear, que colorear...
En los mapas del cielo el sol siempre es amarillo (tú lo pintarás)
y la lluvia o las nubes no pueden velar tanto brillo (tú lo pintarás)
basta aún desearlo y podrá recorrer todo el mundo (tú lo pintarás)

Gracias a la vida
Mercedes Sosa - Thanks to life (Violeta Parra)
Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
It gave me two beams of light, that when opened,
Can perfectly distinguish black from white
And in the sky above, her starry backdrop,
And from within the multitude
The one that I love.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
It gave me an ear that, in all of its width
Records— night and day—crickets and canaries,
Hammers and turbines and bricks and storms,
And the tender voice of my beloved.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
It gave me sound and the alphabet.
With them the words that I think and declare:
"Mother," "Friend," "Brother" and the light shining.
The route of the soul from which comes love.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
It gave me the ability to walk with my tired feet.
With them I have traversed cities and puddles
Valleys and deserts, mountains and plains.
And your house, your street and your patio.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
It gave me a heart, that causes my frame to shudder,
When I see the fruit of the human brain,
When I see good so far from bad,
When I see within the clarity of your eyes...
Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
It gave me laughter and it gave me longing.
With them I distinguish happiness and pain—
The two materials from which my songs are formed,
And your song, as well, which is the same song.
And everyone's song, which is my very song.
Thanks to life
