Encantador de serpientes
El Caribefunk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Una rosa violeta en su cabeza
una sonrisa evitando la tristeza
Frida Kahlo sostenida en su oreja
Tres palabras adornándose en su lengua

Una luna que se asoma a la ventana
y un café seduciendo la mañana
una escuela que temprano la esperaba
y un negrito que mil versos le cantaba

¡Ay mujer! aquí llego el encantador de serpientes
Bella flor que dibuja y relaja el ambiente
I hope you, wait ahí sentada en el lugar de siempre
Para que from my dreams you never will despiertes

Un cigarillo, un viejo radio, una sonrisa
una guitarra acompañada por la brisa




unos poemas que se tejen en silencio
y unas alas que aterrizan en mi pecho necio
