Rumor

Rumour

One day came out from silence
On the echo of a voice
And it got extended like the wind
Which reaches the heart
 
The guitar talked to the morning about freedom.
 
Coming out from his thoughts*
Things that he does not want to shut up*
At the streets and the roads
The early morning comes back
 
The guitar talked to the morning about freedom.
 
A rumour is heard at the corners
Which announces that will arrive
The day when all the men
Be able to walk together
 
The guitar talked to the morning about freedom.
 
Coming out from his thoughts*
Things that he does not want to shut up*
At the streets and the roads
And until the path of the sea
 
The guitar talked to the morning about freedom.

*In Spanish, the song is impersonal, it does not talk about a particular person (man or woman). However, I had to use male gender for English translation.

During the years that this album was being written, Spainish society was facing a transition. For this reason, most of the songs of this album, "Hijos del Agobio", talk about feelings that those years brought.
