La Montaña

The mountain where the sun sets
Path that leads to the river
The firewood that calls the fire
Song that scares away the storm

The birds that announce the night
The cold wind that comes
The stone where one sits
God, the calm of the snail

Sleep, child
For I name the landscape to you
Sleep, child
For I announce the passage to you

The cave where the mouse was born
Path that leads to the mountain
The water of the remedies
Song that lulls the loneliness

The cloud that looks at the moon
Whispers of the singers
The three everlasting stars
The matarratón tree

Sleep, child
For the singer is sleepy
Sleep, child
For the singer is sleepy
