Rosa de Alejandría, rosa amarilla.
Alejarme quiero. Adentrarme en el silencio.
Alejarme quiero
de esta vida que yo vivo sin convencimiento.
Y adentrarme en el tiempo de las luces,
barros vivos encendidos por la manos
del misterioso alfarero.
Alejarme quiero. Adentrarme en el silencio.
Caminar sereno. Abandonar esta senda.
Alejarme quiero.
Andar en los atrojes
con las golondrinas de azuladas plumas.
Convertirme en caja de medir fanegas,
arrobas, celemines; ser trigo en las eras,
nunca polvo en las aceras.
Rosa de Alejandría, rosa amarilla.
Hoy has de ser mi guía, la luz que brilla.
Faro de mediodía, rosa sencilla.
Rosa de Alejandría, rosa amarilla.
Con las flores de un campo encendido
como un San Francisco entre jarales vivos
de lagartos, vivo.
De quimeras me alimento,
con simplezas me contento.
Mozas de risueño gesto en calma me encuentran
como a un Góngora perfecto,
perviviendo lejos del bullicio,
con mi rosa amarilla, con mi rosa de los precipicios.
Alejarme quiero. Adentrarme en el silencio.
Alejarme quiero. Abandonar esta senda.
Alejarme quiero.
Rosa de Alejandría, rosa amarilla.
Hoy has de ser mi guía, rumbo entre islas.
Faro de mediodía, rosa sencilla.
Rosa de Alejandría, rosa amarilla.

Manolo García (nome completo Manuel García Garcia-Pérez) è un cantautore e pittore spagnolo nato a Poblenou, Barcellona, il 19 agosto 1955. Iniziò la sua carriera musicale suonando con band rock come Los Rapidos, Los Burros e El Último de la Fila. Il suo stile vocale è una miscela di pop rock, flamenco e musica araba. Con El Último de la Fila raggiunse il successo negli anni '90, diventando un punto di riferimento del rock spagnolo. In seguito ha intrapreso una carriera solista altrettanto di successo, consolidando la sua fama con album come «El último de la fila» (1993) e «Manolo García» (1996). Le sue canzoni sono caratterizzate da testi poetici che esplorano temi come l'amore, la vita e la perdita. Tra i suoi brani più noti figurano «Como un burro amarrado en la puerta de un baile», «Nunca el tiempo es perdido» e «Rosa de Alejandria». Manolo García è considerato uno degli artisti spagnoli più influenti del panorama musicale contemporaneo.
