El Tiempo

You were born on a loom
t your father is a weaver
your children will weave
and time falls
drops
drops

You are on a loom
and you weave I-don't-know-what
your hand will weave
and time falls
drops
drops

Someone wove the sun
with the calm of a woman
they made it in a color
and time falls
drops
drops

Someone wove the thirst
using sea thread
and the desire to drink
and time falls
drops
drops

Someone wove the thirst
using sea thread
and the calm of a woman
and time falls
drops
drops

Weaving is learning
to spin and unravel
weaving is continuing
and time falls
drops
drops.
