No te vallas
Cerraron las cortinas , juntaron esa puerta
trataron de encontrar una salida
pero la madrugada , traia entre sus alas
al indeseable sol de la partida.
Con fuego en la mirada,con frío en las palabras
le dijo de una vez : "me voy de casa"
primero hubo silencio , despues los pensamientos
salieron a librar esa batalla.
No te vayas...no te vayas...
Sentado en la escala rodrigo en pijamas
trataba de entender lo que ocurría
aunque a los siete años la vida es un milagro
que tiene el corazón de golondrina.
Entraban y salían a ratos discutían
por cosas que en verdad ya no importaban
caía en mil pedazos el cielo entre sus brazos
y ellos no miraron hacia arriba.
No te vayas...no te vayas...
Cuando el cerro la puerta , la casa se hizo inmensa
su madre lo encontró sobre la escala
con los ojos abiertos como dos universos
que aprenden el color de la nostalgia.
Sin besos , sin palabras el niño es quien la abraza
y aprieta los tobillos a su espalda
atrás de las pestañas hay soles que se bañan
y mundos al revés que valen nada.
No te vayas...no te vayas...
Don't leave
They closed the curtains, closed that door
Tried to find a way out
But the early morning, brought with its wings
The unwanted sun of departure
With fire in the eyes, with cold in the words
He said once: 'I'm leaving home'
First there was silence, then the thoughts
Came out to fight that battle
Don't leave... don't leave...
Sitting on the stairs, Rodrigo in pajamas
Trying to understand what was happening
Although at seven years old, life is a miracle
That has the heart of a swallow
They came and went, sometimes they argued
About things that truly no longer mattered
The sky fell into pieces in their arms
And they didn't look up
Don't leave... don't leave...
When he closed the door, the house became immense
His mother found him on the stairs
With eyes open like two universes
Learning the color of nostalgia
Without kisses, without words, the child is the one who hugs her
And squeezes her ankles against his back
Behind the eyelashes there are suns bathing
And upside-down worlds worth nothing
Don't leave... don't leave...
