No Vivo En Una Sociedad Perfecta - Pablo Milanés

No vivo en una sociedad perfecta

Yo pido que no se le dé ese nombre

Si alguna cosa me hace sentir esta

Es porque la hacen mujeres y hombres

Quien la vio nacer, quien la idealizó

Quien vio que cambió a su parecer

Le duele que hoy no sea la rosa

Que conquistó el jardín de su vida

Quien la hizo nacer, quien participó

Quien la hizo cambiar y no perecer

No le complacen todas las cosas

Pero por esto da ya la vida

El extremista y el cobarde

Van convergiendo en su dolor

Mientras el resto con amor

Trabaja porque se le hace tarde

Así sucede en los parajes

Donde subir te hace mejor

El falso no tiene valor

El verdadero sigue su viaje

I don't live in a perfect society

I ask that it not be given that name

If anything makes me feel this

It is because it is done by women and men

Who saw her born, who idealized her

Who saw that changed his opinion

It hurts that today is not the rose

That she conquered the garden of her life

Who gave birth to her, who participated

Who made her change and not perish

He is not pleased with all things

But for this she already gives her life

The extremist and the coward

They are converging on their pain

While the rest with love

She works because she is late

This is how it happens in the places

Where climbing makes you better

The fake has no value

The real one continues his journey
