Honrar La Vida
¡No! Permanecer y transcurrir
No es perdurar, no es existir
¡Ni honrar la vida!
Hay tantas maneras de no ser,
Tanta conciencia sin saber
Adormecida
Merecer la vida no es callar y consentir,
Tantas injusticias repetidas...
¡Es una virtud, es dignidad!
Y es la actitud de identidad ¡más definida!
Eso de durar y transcurrir
No nos da derecho a presumir.
Porque no es lo mismo que vivir
¡Honrar la vida!
¡No! Permanecer y transcurrir
No siempre quiere sugerir
¡Honrar la vida!
Hay tanta pequeña vanidad,
En nuestra tonta humanidad
Enceguecida
Merecer la vida es erguirse vertical,
Más allá del mal, de las caídas...
Es igual que darle a la verdad,
Y a nuestra propia libertad
¡La bienvenida!
Eso de durar y transcurrir
No nos da derecho a presumir.
Porque no es lo mismo que vivir
¡Honrar la vida!
Honoring Life
No! To remain and pass by
Is not to endure, is not to exist
Nor to honor life!
There are so many ways of not being,
So much consciousness without knowing
Numb
To deserve life is not to be silent and consent,
So many repeated injustices...
It's a virtue, it's dignity!
And it's the most defined identity attitude!
To last and pass by
Doesn't give us the right to boast.
Because it's not the same as living
Honoring life!
No! To remain and pass by
Doesn't always suggest
Honoring life!
There's so much petty vanity,
In our foolish humanity
Blinded
To deserve life is to stand up vertically,
Beyond evil, beyond falls...
It's the same as giving truth,
And our own freedom
The welcome!
To last and pass by
Doesn't give us the right to boast.
Because it's not the same as living
Honoring life!
