Lyrics Canción a mi padre Marwan

 822

Canción a mi padre


1950 te dio a luz en la tierra donde los jóvenes

lanzan piedras a la injusticia cada atardecer

donde las madres esperan con el plato en la mesa

sin la certeza de que sus hijos regresen para comer

tan niño y ya refugiado, con cordones sin zapato

y un kilo de garbanzos para los doce y a comer y a comer

de postre fruta robada del huerto de alguna casa

y cazar mil colibríes para entender qué significa vencer

te hiciste un hombre de golpe cuando eras adolescente

el día en que en esa guerra le hiciste un corte de mangas a la muerte

y las olas celebrando que llegaste a españa en barco

y que le voy a hacer y que le vas a hacer

si tú también naciste en el mediterráneo

ya en madrid te enamoraste de una flor que hoy es mi madre

y aunque hablabais diferente os entendíais como nadie

y buscasteis un futuro en pantalones de campana

y aun sigues llevando a casa tantas flores si pasar por caja

padre no sabría explicarlo demostraste ya hace mucho

que para partir fronteras la sonrisa es un serrucho

y dimite la tristeza porque al llegar tu risa

recuperas a ese niño que algunos pierden de vista

y cómo agradecer padre que en mis naufragios

tu palabra siempre supo a tabla en el mar

y cómo explicar que nadie me quiere como tu me quieres

que si te falta aire yo dejo de respirar

y como hacer que entiendas que cuando la parca venga a ti

a la tierra le saldrán dos labios para poder sonreír



ya en madrid te enamoraste de una flor que hoy es mi madre

y aunque hablabais diferente os entendíais como nadie

y buscasteis un futuro en pantalones de campana

y aun sigues llevando a casa tantas flores si pasar por caja

padre no sabría explicarlo demostraste ya hace mucho

que para partir fronteras la sonrisa es un serrucho

y dimite la tristeza porque al llegar tu risa

recuperas a ese niño que algunos pierden de vista

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
