Animal of hopes and memories
(Raimon)
Animal of hopes and memories
I haven't wanted to be human any other way,
I haven't wanted not to know and to resign myself
To be, more or less, like a wild beast.
Limits, I know very well so many limits.
And I live struggling against these limits. Limits.
Alone and in company I try to be useful
With songs of love, with songs of struggle.
Incomplete inventory of time and life.
I'll walk again those paths that I walked alone
Now that I know with you I am freer.
And with the last lines of the drawing
I'll look at the sea, I'll listen to my dead,
Beloved shadows that reside in me.
I'll refuse deceptions, I'll continue hopes.
I haven't wanted to be human any other way,
I haven't wanted not to know and to resign myself
To be, more or less, like a wild beast.
Limits, I know very well so many limits.
And I live struggling against these limits. Limits.
Alone and in company I try to be useful
With songs of love, with songs of struggle.
Incomplete inventory of time and life.
I'll walk again those paths that I walked alone
Now that I know with you I am freer.
And with the last lines of the drawing
I'll look at the sea, I'll listen to my dead,
Beloved shadows that reside in me.
I'll refuse deceptions, I'll continue hopes.
