BLACK DOVE

Jenni Rivera (1950)

I am tired of crying and it doesn't dawn.

I no longer know whether to curse you or to pray for you.

I am afraid to look for you and to find you

WHERE MY FRIENDS ASSURE ME THAT YOU ARE GOING

THERE ARE MOMENTS WHEN I WISH I COULD JUST GIVE UP

AND TEAR OUT THE NAILS OF MY PUNISHMENT NOW

BUT MY EYES DIE WITHOUT LOOKING AT YOUR EYES

AND MY AFFECTION WITH THE AURORA WAITS FOR YOU AGAIN

YOU GOT CARRIED AWAY WITH THE PARTIES ON YOUR OWN

BLACK DOVE, BLACK DOVE, WHERE, WHERE WILL YOU WALK

DON'T PLAY WITH MY PARTY HONOR ANYMORE

IF YOUR TOUCHES MUST BE MINE, NO ONE ELSE'S

AND EVEN THOUGH I LOVE YOU MADLY, DO NOT COME BACK

BLACK DOVE YOU ARE THE BARS OF A PRISON

I WANT TO BE FREE, TO LIVE MY LIFE WITH WHOEVER LOVES ME

GOD GIVE ME STRENGTH, I AM DYING

G G
I am from the rough shore, I carry my shadow alert
In In
From the murky water and the current About the scale of open water
C C
What a beautiful drop And in the dizzying stillness
D D
for its murky depth, of the espinel,
C C
I am a serious countryman, I dream that I raise the bow
G G
I am from the Valerio cove, And I take the canoe to the moon
D D
What is where the sky is And there it rests, made a refuge
G G
It takes flight again in the Paraná. My own skin.

G G
I have the color of the river Calm of my pains,
In In
And your same voice I continue in my song Oh Christ of the fishermen,
C C
the gentle water Tell my beloved
D D
and its gentle dance in the heart, That she is sorry waiting for me,
C C
But sometimes dark, I'm thinking about her.
G In G In
It goes turbulent in the blind depth As I wade through the stars,
C D G C
And it shines on this fisherman's knife. The river is wild.
D G
G In And I am tired to go back.
Christ of the nets
D G G Em
Don't abandon us, Christ of the networks
G In G
And in the hooks Don't abandon us,
D G G In
Leave us your gifts. And in the spindles
D D G
Don't think you've lost us, Let us have your gifts.
In D
That poverty makes us sad, Don't think that you lost us,
C D In
The blood tenses and one does not think That poverty makes us sad,
G C D
More than in dying, The blood is tense and one does not think
C G
Water of the old river More than in dying,
G In C
Take this cry away soon Water from the old river
Am G In
What is being clarified Take this cry away soon
D G Am
And we go fishing to live. What is clarifying?
D G
And we go fishing to live
IF I LEAVE BEFORE YOU
Jaime Roos

G
If I leave before you G
G If I leave before you
If I leave you in these lands G
In G And I visit your silence
Don't be afraid of the night In G
G It's not for you to be sad.
That in the night I live G
Not even to see your pain
G
If I leave before you G
G I want to tell you my love
If that is how willing you are G
In G In these clumsy words
I want your news In G
G Whenever you cry
They speak of the air and the sun G
My heart will know it
Am C
I want you to always remember D G
Am C And we will not meet
What we said one day D G
Well, I was always by your side
I am C G
That every time you laugh Where to and until when
G G
I laugh with you my love Those are things of God.

D G D G
And don't forget something. And we won't meet.
D G D G
Well, I have always been by your side.
What is guessed in life
G G G
And it is that life itself Always even if I leave earlier
G G G
It's a miracle of love It is a miracle of love
