cafecito en la barbacoa
cafecito en la barbacoa In the dark a world can tell no lies (I write this from the fire horse in a dream at the edge of my mind) At every season’s end I breathe the ash and see you again But the land remembers la tierra recuerda Las jíbaros lloran and mi vergüenza like a stream within a stream seeds the campo that grows the pearl You dance with what was never yours the moonbeam a forever spotlight for the man who owns the world while stones I bury from a path undue even if they turn it off soon know I was here with you En el apagón mi alma is making coffee on the barbecue At the edge of the sugarcane there’s something they could never undo boricua en la luna I hear it humming from the dunes
