El surco - Inti Illimani

Dentro de un surco abierto vi germinar

Un lucero de infinita soledad

Y con una canasta le vi regar

Con agua de un arroyo de oscuridad

Ah, malhaya, la siembra se ech?

a perder

Y el agua del arroyo se ech?

a correr

Al lucero le gusta la libertad

Y al agua del arroyo la claridad

No dio fruto el lucero, se fue a alumbrar

Y el agua del arroyo te fue a cuidar

En una hora triste quise cantar

Y dentro de mi canto quise gritar

Y dentro de mi grito quise llorar

Pero tan s?

lo canto para callar

Ah, malhaya la hora en que fui a cantar

Ah, malhaya la hora en que fui a gritar

Si gritando se llora para callar

Y mi vaso sediento no llega al mar

Ah, malhaya la hora en que fui a cantar

Ah, malhaya la hora en que fui a gritar

Y as?

se fue el lucero a su libertad

Y as?

se fue el arroyo a su claridad

No me lleg?

la hora de clarinar.

Inside an open furrow I saw germinate

A star of infinite loneliness

And with a basket I saw him water

With water from a stream of darkness

Ah, malhaya, the sowing was done?

to lose

And the water of the stream was thrown?

to run

Lucero likes freedom

And to the water of the stream the clarity

The star did not bear fruit, it went to light

And the water of the stream went to take care of you

In a sad hour I wanted to sing

And within my song I wanted to shout

And within my scream I wanted to cry

But so yes?

I sing it to shut up

Ah, I wish the time I went to sing

Ah, woe to the time when I went to scream

If yelling you cry to shut up

And my thirsty glass does not reach the sea

Ah, I wish the time I went to sing

Ah, woe to the time when I went to scream

and so?

the star went to his freedom

and so?

the stream went to its clarity

I didn't get it

the time to clarify.
