Alfonsina y el Mar
Mercedes Sosa
Por la blanda arena que lame el mar
Su pequeña huella no vuelve más
Un sendero solo de pena y silencio llegó
Hasta el agua profunda
Un sendero solo de penas mudas llegó
Hasta la espuma,
Sabe Dios qué angustia te acompañó
Qué dolores viejos calló tu voz
Para recostarte arrullada en el canto de las
caracolas marinas
La canción que canta en el fondo oscuro del mar
La caracola,
Te vas Alfonsina con tu soledad
¿Qué poemas nuevos fuiste a buscar?
Una voz antigua de viento y de sal
Te requiebra el alma y la está llevando
Y te vas hacia allá como en sueños
Dormida, Alfonsina, vestida de mar
Cinco sirenitas te llevarán
Por caminos de algas y de coral
Y fosforescentes caballos marinos harán
Una ronda a tu lado
Y los habitantes del agua van a jugar
Pronto a tu lado,
Bájame la lámpara un poco más
Déjame que duerma nodriza, en paz
Y si llama él no le digas que estoy
Dile que Alfonsina no vuelve
Y si llama él no le digas nunca que estoy
Di que me he ido,
Te vas Alfonsina con tu soledad
¿Qué poemas nuevos fuiste a buscar?
Una voz antigua de viento y de sal
Te requiebra el alma y la está llevando
Y te vas hacia allá como en sueños
Dormida, Alfonsina, vestida de mar.
Mercedes Sosa
By the soft sand that ingests the sea
His little print doesn't come back.
A lonely path of sorrow and silence came
Even the deep water
A path of silent sorrows only came
Even the foam,
God knows what anguish accompanied you
What old pains your voice silenced
To lie lulled in the singing of the
seashells
The song he sings on the dark bottom of the sea
The conch,
You leave Alfonsina with your loneliness
What new poems did you go looking for?
An ancient voice of wind and salt
He's requisitioning your soul and he's carrying it.
And you're going there like in your dreams
Asleep, Alfonsina, dressed in the sea
Five little mermaids will take you
By seaweed and coral paths
And phosphorescent seahorses will make
A round by your side
And the inhabitants of the water are going to play
Soon by your side
Put the lamp down a little more
Let me sleep nurse, in peace
And if he calls, don't tell him I'm
Tell him Alfonsina's not coming back.
And if he calls, don't ever tell him I'm
Say I'm gone,
You leave Alfonsina with your loneliness
What new poems did you go looking for?
An ancient voice of wind and salt
He's requisitioning your soul and he's carrying it.
And you're going there like in your dreams
Asleep, Alfonsina, dressed in the sea.
