Primero la cita lejana de Abril
tu oscuro balcón, tu antiguo jardín,
más tarde las cartas de pulso febril
mintiendo que no, jurando que sí
Romance de barrio, tu amor y mi amor
primero un querer, después un dolor
por culpas que nunca tuvimos
por culpas que debimos sufrir los dos
Hoy vivirás despreciándome, tal vez sin soñar
que lamento al no poderte tener
el dolor de no saber olvidar
Hoy estarás como nunca lejos mío
lejos de tanto llorar fue porque sí,
que el despecho te cegó como a mí
sin mirar que en el rencor del adiós
castigabas con crueldad tu corazón,
fue porque sí, que de pronto no supimos pensar
que es más fácil renegar y partir
que vivir sin olvidar
Ceniza del tiempo la cita de abril,
tu oscuro balcón, tu antiguo jardín,
las cartas trazadas con mano febril,
mintiendo que no, jurando que sí
Retornan vencidas tu voz y mi voz
trayendo al volver con tonos de horror
las culpas que nunca tuvimos,
las culpas que debimos pagar los dos.
Haydée Mercedes Sosa (1935-2009) was an Argentine singer, considered an icon of Latin American popular music. Born in Tucumán, she began her career in the 1960s singing folk and traditional Argentine songs. Her powerful and emotive voice, along with her dedication to the fight for civil rights and peace, made her a prominent cultural and social figure in Argentina and worldwide. Sosa distinguished herself by interpreting songs by songwriters like Atahualpa Yupanqui and Víctor Jara, but she also composed some of her most famous songs, such as "Gracias a la vida" and "Alfombra verde". During the Argentine military dictatorship (1976-1983), Sosa openly opposed the regime, going into exile in several countries. After the fall of the regime, she returned to Argentina and continued to sing until her death in 2009. Mercedes Sosa is remembered as a powerful and unforgettable voice that has inspired generations of musicians and activists.
