Salimos de aquí
(T.Auger)
Salimos de una grieta
de una calle cercana
desde entonces dormimos
dando vueltas en la cama
Salimos del pedazo de cielo
que pudre las manzanas...
Salimos del baile, la botella
y la baraja...
Salimos de un sueño,
un sueño de agua salada...
Salimos del Yunque y de los ríos
y del Combate y del picadillo
y del fanatismo a los partidos
y a la iglesia y al bolsillo...
Salimos de un pozo
donde ya no queda agua...
Salimos de un pueblo
que en silencio se le ama...
Salimos de donde se reunen
todas las caravanas...
Salimos de un monte
con cadillos en los pies...
Salimos de un bosque de azucar y café...
Salimos de centro y del calor y del machismo
y del amor al conformismo
y del culantro y del sartén
y de una ola que se corre alrevés...
Salimos de aquí
de la orilla del camino...
Salimos de aquí
de un paraíso perdido...
Salimos de aquí
de la perla privilegiada
de la sombra asociada
de la envidia caribeña
y de la estupidez isleña
de sentirse en menosprecio
por ser de aquí...
Y así salimos descalzos
y así aprendimos sin querer
a comernos las "s" cuando hablamos
y eso es to' lo que hay que saber
Somos los que cantan con la lengua amarrada
Somos los que alternan Coca-Cola con Maví
Somos de la tribu que se pierde en su país
Mirando la vida por el retrovisor
de cantazo en cantazo
aprendiendo con sabor
Y no creemos en diccionarios
ni en panfletos de la fé
ni en los dichosos patriotismos
de las copas elevados y los
brindis de chalet...
Salimos de aquí...
eso no es de donde quiera
Salimos de aquí...
te lo digo sin problemas
Salimos de aquí...
de la playa enamorada
de los campos de batalla
y de las casas de cemento
y que se caigan los lamentos
que se escucha por aquí...
...vivir pa' sobrevivir...
...vivir pa' sobrevivir...
...vivir pa' sobrevivir...
...vivir pa' sobrevivir...
Salimos del beso
de una diosa olvidada
Salimos de un volcán
al que no le queda lava
Salimos de pensar
de que ya aquí no queda nada...
Salimos de madrugada
de una cuna reciclada
recitando oraciones
que aprendimos sin opciones
y hoy regresan en canciones
en saludos y discusiones
en las miradas de tu cara
y en la forma en que te paras
y hoy toda la brisa
sabe a Puerto Rico...
