I arrived at your school without understanding why I was coming
|
In your halls I find a thousand paths and crossroads
|
And I learn a lot and I learn nothing
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
I go through days of sun, light and downpours
|
I go through nights of darkness and moons
|
I step affirming, I step denying, I step with doubts
|
Between laughter and bitterness, looking for the why and the when
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
Teacher life, of justices and injustices
|
Of goodness and malice I still can't understand you
|
Teacher life that guilt does not forgive
|
I'm looking among your hours for the mirror of time
|
To see your feelings and thus understand your things
|
And I saw thorns and I saw roses
|
I saw loved ones die I saw beauties I witnessed
|
Of evils and wars
|
I saw the good of the land
|
And I saw the hunger and the misery and between the drama and the comedy
|
Progress between water and fire
|
In god I remember first
|
Alone in the process of dying
|
Or sometimes when I'm sad but never if I'm happy
|
no hard thanks
|
For the one who gives us a hand
|
As soon as the nail comes out
|
All the suffering is forgotten
|
And I have friends, acquaintances and enemies
|
loves that have loved me
|
And faces that deny seeing me
|
I found myself facing death
|
And in his eyes I saw the meaning
|
And with the fear with me
|
That's how I learned to love you
|
And today I know that nothing is certain
|
Since everything is temporary
|
Death is the messenger that with the last hour comes
|
And time doesn't stop
|
Not for love, not for money
|
Death is the messenger that with the last hour comes
|
And time doesn't stop
|
Not for love, not for money
|
Master life, I go chasing time
|
Let's see if I find answers, before the time in
|
let me die
|
Although I am resigning myself to this fatal reality
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
Maestra vida camará'a, it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
It gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
It gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
It gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
It gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
camera life teacher
|
But it gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you
|
Hey, when you least expect it
|
The surprise camara'a goes
|
And time, look, it doesn't stop
|
Neither for love nor for money
|
Death, compa, death is the messenger
|
That with the last hour comes
|
When Carmelo died
|
I felt a pain so deep
|
That I find nothing in the world
|
With what can I console myself?
|
It gives you, it takes you, it takes you and it gives you |
