by Andrés Eloy Blanco Meaño (1897 - 1955)

Si el silencio fuera mío
 (Sung text for setting by M. Bor)
 See original
Language: Spanish (Español) 
¡Si el silencio fuera mío,
qué silencio!
Si el silencio fuera mío,
cuando haya silencio
no te darás cuenta
de tanto silencio.

Ya las cosas no serían
hechas a golpes y ruidos;
serían todos de aceite
las sierras y los martillos,
el hacha de pensamiento
y el azadón de suspiro.

 ...
