El Surco - Jorge Drexler

Letra de «El Surco»

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

Amalaya la siembra se echó a perder

Y el agua del arroyo se echó 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 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 solo canto para callar

Amalaya la hora en que fui a cantar

Amalaya la hora en que fui a gritar

Si gritando se llora para callar

Y mi vaso sediento no llega al mar

Amalaya la hora en que fui a cantar

Amalaya la hora en que fui a gritar

Y así se fue el lucero a su libertad

Y así se fue el arroyo a su claridad

No me llegó la hora de clarinar

No me llegó la hora de clarinar

De clarinar

De clarinar

"El Surco" lyrics

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

Amalaya the sowing was spoiled

And the water of the stream began 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

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 I only sing to shut up

Amalaya the time I went to sing

Amalaya the time I went to scream

If yelling you cry to shut up

And my thirsty glass does not reach the sea

Amalaya the time I went to sing

Amalaya the time I went to scream

And so the star went to his freedom

And so the stream went to its clarity

The time has not come for me to clarify

The time has not come for me to clarify

to clarify

to clarify
