Lyrics
Sí el poeta eres tú,
como dijo el poeta,
y el que ha tumbado estrellas
en mil noches
de lluvias coloridas eres tú,
qué tengo yo que hablarte Comandante.
Si el que asomó al futuro su perfil
y lo estrenó con voces de fusil
fuiste tú, guerrero para siempre, tiempo eterno,
qué puedo yo cantarte Comandante.
En vano busco en mi guitarra tu dolor
y en mi jardín ya todo es bello no hay temor,
qué puedo yo dejarte Comandante
que no sea cambiar mi guitarra por tu suerte;
o negarle una canción al sol
o morir sin amor.
Qué puedo yo cantarte Comandante
si el poeta eres tú
como dijo el poeta
y el que ha tumbado estrellas
en mil noches de lluvias coloridas eres tú,
qué puedo yo cantarte Comandante.
Lyrics translation
Yes the poet is you,
as the poet said,
and the one who has knocked down stars
in a thousand nights
of colorful rains it is you,
What do I have to talk to you about, commander?
If the one who peeked into the future his profile
and it premiered with gun voices
it was You, warrior forever, eternal time,
what can I sing To You, Commander?
In vain I seek in my guitar your pain
and in my garden everything is beautiful there is no fear,
What Can I leave you, Commander?
other than changing my guitar for your luck;
or deny the sun a song
or die without love.
What Can I sing To You Commander
if the poet is you
as the poet said
and the one who has knocked down stars
in a thousand colorful rainy nights it's you,
what can I sing To You, Commander?
