Los elefantes saben descansar
Van a morir de paz.
Un elefante sabe como aquél
El creador de la tierra y el sol
Y si es que ves como se extienden
Si ves como se resignan
A olvidar su inexplicable soledad
Serás como ellos,
Te podrán contar los cuentos más extraños
Pero no te apurarás.
Los elefantes saben olvidar
Míralos como están,
Mira sus largas trompas sin razón;
Como huelen todo lo que está.
Y si es que ves como se extienden
Si ves como se resignan
A olvidar su inexplicable soledad
Serás como ellos,
Te podrán contar los cuentos más extraños
Pero no te apurarás.
Un elefante anda por aquí
Vamos a verlo andar,
Mientras sea un elefante hasta el final
No tendrás que entender;
Y tendrás calma,
Tendrás calma,
Y tendrás...
Una blanca calma,
Una blanca, una blanca calma,
Una blanca, blanca calma.
