Poeta de Corazón
Alejandro Filio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cantando al viento me alejo
pero no dejo
el camino que mi Dios me destinó.
No porque un solo señor
no quiera escuchar mis versos
ni entender mi vocación.

Y no he de encontrar ganancia
pero sí la resonancia
de mi guitarra al cantar
y con ella he de llenar
mis bolsillos y mis ansias
o mis ganas de triunfar,
porque largo es el camino
pero empiezo a caminar.

Si mi camino es de abrojos
nunca he de cerrar los ojos
ni olvidar que soy poeta
de corazón.

Y habrá alguien que conmigo
compartirá mis sentidos
mi defectos y mi fe.
Esa ha de ser mi mujer
que sintiéndose orgullosa
mi esposa tendrá que ser,
compañera de mis horas
y mis ganas de querer.

Mi soledad será la cuna
para que nazca mi luna,
mis estrellas y mi sol.

Mi escuela será la vida
que por no ser tan sencilla
le tendré que demostrar
que no preciso de estar
amarrado a cuatro libros
que escribiera algún doctor.




Y es que siento que es mejor
vivir de lo que yo sé.
