Por muchos lugares pasaba la historia
History passed through many places
Tú leías a whitman, con estilo triste
You read Whitman, with a sad style
Tus alrededores ya estaban poblando
Your surroundings were already populating
De sed las palabras que usaste esta tarde
Thirsty for the words you used this afternoon
Entonces ya estaban previstos tus gustos
Then your tastes were already foreseen
Cada vieja fecha posee estas artes
Every old date owns these arts
Por eso no es raro que muchos no entiendan
That is why it is not strange that many do not understand
Pues muchos supimos de los mismos rumbos
Well, many of us knew of the same directions
Por eso no es raro que nadie domine
That is why it is not strange that nobody dominates
Las riendas de todos sus mundos
The reins of all their worlds
Por muchos lugares pasaba la historia
History passed through many places
El antigua egipto ya nos condenaba
Ancient Egypt already condemned us
Todos conspiraron para reprimirnos
They all conspired to suppress us
Y como las lluvias vinieron las guerras
And as the rains came the wars
Y el tiempo ha llorado detrás de las estructuras
And time has cried behind the structures
Pues nada se salva del orden perfecto
Well, nothing is saved from the perfect order
Por muchos lugares pasaba la historia
History passed through many places
Ya cada palabra era una duda
Every word was already a doubt
Y elegir la clave de cada conciencia
And choose the key of each consciousness
Y a ti, tan pequeña y resumen del mundo
And to you, so small and summary of the world
Todo te tenía que arder cuando viste
Everything had to burn when you saw
Moros en las costas de cada palabra
Moors on the shores of each word
Por muchos lugares pasaba la historia
History passed through many places
El mundo era un vasto sembrado de huesos
The world was a vast litter of bones
Y las hortalizas un día crecieron
And the vegetables one day grew
Nutridas del jugo vital de los cuerpos
Nourished by the vital juice of the bodies
Y supe que escombros regados por tierra
And I knew that rubble scattered on the ground
Pueden fecundarle mañana la entraña
They can fertilize her womb tomorrow
