We were the chosen ones of the sun And we didn't realize We were the chosen

We were the chosen ones of the sun And we didn't realize We were the chosen ones of the highest star And we didn't know how to respond to his gift Anguish of impotence The water loved us The earth loved us The jungles were ours Ecstasy was our own space Your gaze was the universe face to face Your beauty was the sound of dawn Spring loved by the trees Now we are a contagious sadness A death before time The soul that doesn't know where it is Winter in the bones without a lightning bolt And all this because you didn't know what eternity is Nor did you understand the soul of my soul in its ship of darkness On its throne of an eagle wounded by infinity
