Como dicho al pasar lo estoy diciendo,
como dicho al pasar mientras se pueda.
Tuve culpas, te juro
cada vez que pillaste mi actitud clase media.
Y también desencanto
cuando me criticabas mi discurso de izquierda.
Dos países son mucho, te repito,
para tanta conciencia.
Si fue errado el camino
tal vez nunca se sepa.
Siempre habrá quien condene
y también quien defienda.
No lo sé,
ya no es cosa nuestra.
Sólo insisto en decirte,
y te pido lo pongas a favor en la cuenta,
no elegimos quedarnos con los brazos cruzados,
ni esconder la cabeza.
Elegimos jugarnos.
Y es la gran diferencia.
He visto al otro país
Descalzo en el arenal
Con ojos de cunumí
Preguntándonos por la dignidad
He visto al otro país
Vestido de soledad
Durmiéndose en el anden
Sin tener a qué puerta golpear
He visto al otro país
Pidiendo la libertad
De aquellos que encarceló
Sin explicación, tanta impunidad
Lo he visto jugándose
Entero por los demás
De blancos pañuelos va
Déjenlo pasar, déjenlo pasar
Lo miré soltar su esperanza al viento
Como una pandorga de sol en vuelo
Lo miré volver del trabajo incierto
Con el puño alzado lo sigo viendo
Lo miré pelear defendiendo un sueño
Lo miré en tus ojos, che compañero
Tan intensamente
Lo sigo viendo, lo sigo viendo
He visto al otro país
En nuestros hijos, mi amor
En la tremenda ilusión
De creérmelo, de creérmelo
Me duele debo decir
En la cantora que soy
En la maestra de ayer
Una y otra vez, una y otra vez
The lyrics COMO DICHO AL PASAR of MERCEDES SOSA is also present in the album Ángel (2014)
Haydée Mercedes Sosa (1935-2009) è stata una cantante argentina, considerata un'icona della musica popolare latinoamericana. Nata a Tucumán, iniziò la sua carriera negli anni '60 cantando folk e canzoni tradizionali argentiniane. La sua voce potente e emozionante, insieme alla sua dedizione alla lotta per i diritti civili e la pace, la resero una figura di grande rilievo culturale e sociale in Argentina e nel mondo. Sosa si distinse per l'interpretazione di brani di cantautori come Atahualpa Yupanqui e Víctor Jara, ma compose anche alcune delle sue canzoni più famose, come "Gracias a la vida" e "Alfombra verde". Durante la dittatura militare argentina (1976-1983), Sosa si schierò apertamente contro il regime, esiliandosi in diverse nazioni. Tornata in Argentina dopo la caduta del regime, continuò a cantare fino alla sua morte nel 2009. Mercedes Sosa è ricordata come una voce potente e indimenticabile che ha ispirato generazioni di musicisti e attivisti.
