La aparecida - Jorge Drexler

Se va la tarde en Zanja Honda

La playa es bruma y resplandor

El viento desde el mar invoca su voz

Dicen que vuelve cada marzo

Que canta cuando ya no hay luz

Y desde la Playa del Faro

La vieron flotar hacia el Sur

Vine a verte, aparecida, luz del mirador

Música de las mareas

Con el ocaso detenido

El mar es menos que un rumor

Y da paso a cada sonido

A cada cambio de color

Me tiré solo hasta las dunas

Con la primera oscuridad

A verla andar sobre la espuma

Toda mentira y de verdad

Vine a verte, aparecida, luz del mirador

Música de las mareas, dame tu canción

Crucé la noche caminando

Desde El Cabito hasta el farol

Colgándome de una botella

Tentando a la imaginación

Y entre la caña y la vigilia

La vi pasar más de una vez

Yo la seguía por la orilla

Cuando empezaba a amanecer

Vine a verte, aparecida, luz del mirador

Música de las mareas

The afternoon goes by in Zanja Honda

The beach is mist and glow

The wind from the sea summons his voice

They say he comes back every March

That she sings when there is no light

And from the Lighthouse Beach

They saw her float to the South

I came to see you, appeared, light from the lookout

music of the tides

With the twilight stopped

The sea is less than a rumor

And gives way to every sound

At every color change

I threw myself alone to the dunes

with the first darkness

To see her walk on the foam

All lies and truth

I came to see you, appeared, light from the lookout

Music of the tides, give me your song

I walked through the night

From El Cabito to the lantern

hanging from a bottle

tempting the imagination

And between the cane and the vigil

I saw it happen more than once

I followed her along the shore

when it was beginning to dawn

I came to see you, appeared, light from the lookout

music of the tides
