Esta canción esta dedicada a Victor Jara, director y canta-autor chileno, los invito a que lo conozcan mediante el documental "el derecho de vivir en paz" y veran por que tiene el honor de que le dediquen tantas canciones internacionalmente.

Brilliant. Victor Jara was a Chilean poet songwriter murdered by Pinochet

I think it is about a guy named Victor Jara. This is the translation of the Spanish lyrics.

All alone and lost

My path is lit by flame

Crossing lands never seen

Crossing rivers of my destiny

Only a boy nothing more

Day dreaming wanting more

[GoldenGecko]

great song, love it :) I don't know spanish (is it spanish or portugees? ) but I think that You can call it a romantic song, I hope I'm not wrong

[juraOiOiOi]

Wire fences still coiled with flowers of the night Songs of the birds like hands call the earth to witness Sever from fear before taking flight. Fences that fail and fall to the ground Bearing the fruit from Jara's Hands Me siento solo y perdido Una vela alumbra mi camino Cruzando tierras que nunca he visto Cruzando ei rio de mi destino Solo soy un chico mas Que sueha en alto y mirando al mar

Yo también escuché el programa de Alfredo Lewin cuando tocaron esta canción y de ahí es que no paro de escuchar a esta genial agrupación.
