Alfredo Zitarrosa - Black guitar

Introduction
How will I do to take you inside, guitar... How will I do for you to feel my clumsy love, my desires of sounding you fully and mine... How it is played your air flesh, your smelly tact, your hungerless heart, your silence in the bridge, your fifth string, your male and dark bass string, your singing relatives, your three souls, chatting and childish... How can one love you without pain, without hurry, without witnesses, without hands that offend you... How to move to you my well loved men and women, guitar; my alien loves, my certainty of loving you like few... How to bring you all those names and that blood, without flooding your heart with shadows, tremblings and death, ash, loneliness and anger, silence, foolish tears...
