Las doce marcaba
el reloj de la sala
prendido de sueño la luz apagué
cuando oí una fuerte voz que me llamaba
y aparecióseme Lucifer
-"No tiembles de miedo"
me advirtió que es falso
"lo que te han contado los curas de mi"
-"conozco tus trucos" le dije al diablo
"búscate otro fausto y déjame dormir"
-"el cielo que sueñas" contesto enfadado
"es un club privado de gente formal,
yo vengo a llevarte de viaje conmigo
al país del que nadie a vuelto jamas".
Hizo un gesto con su mano
y en el espacio me encontré,
volando con alas de espuma
mirando la tierra a mis pies
Enjambres de estrellas cruzamos veloces
mientras en mi oído sonaba su voz:
-"Hace muchos siglos" me dijo
"en el cielo hubo una sangrienta revolución,
un grupo de ángeles nos levantamos
contra el poder absoluto de Dios,
como todo vencido conocí el exilio
la calumnia el odio y la humillación,
pero te aseguro que de haber ganado
ni muerte ni infierno
ni cinco ni dos,
ni tuyo ni mio
ni odio ni trabajo,
habrían existido,
ni diablo ni Dios"
- "Déjame vivir contigo,
demonio amigo" supliqué
"no me hagas volver a la vida
perdida ya mi antigua fe"
Escuchose entonces un bárbaro trueno
y en mi cama sudando debí despertar,
mi amigo el diablo se esfumó gritando
-"Cuenta lo que sabes a la humanidad"
Desde entonces robo, bebo, mato, arrastro
una miserable vida criminal,
pues se que a la muerte me estará esperando
en el dulce infierno mi amigo Satán.
Sí, esto que les cuento es una historia cierta,
ustedes si quieren me creen o no,
pero no le cierre la puerta al diablo
si llama una noche a su habitación
Joaquín Sabina (born Joaquín Ramón Martínez Sabina on July 15, 1949 in Úbeda, Spain) is one of the most influential and beloved singer-songwriters in Latin music. Known for his incisive poetry, catchy melodies, and raspy voice, Sabina has captivated a vast audience throughout Latin America and the Spanish-speaking world. His musical journey began in the 1960s with experiences in rock bands and Spanish singer-songwriters. In 1975, he released his debut album, "Inventario", which introduced him to the Spanish public.
