El Extranjero

Una barca en el puerto me espera
No sé dónde me ha de llevar
No ando buscando grandeza
Sólo esta tristeza deseo curar
Me marcho y no pienso en la vuelta
Tampoco me apena lo que dejo atrás
Sólo sé que lo que me queda
En un solo bolsillo lo puedo llevar
Me siento en casa en América
En antigua quisiera morir
Parecido me ocurre con África
Asilah, Esauira y el Rift
Pero allá donde voy me llaman el extranjero
Donde quiera que estoy, el extranjero me siento
También extraño en mi tierra
Aunque la quiera de verdad
Pero mi corazón me aconseja
Los nacionalismos que miedo me dan
Ni patria ni bandera
Ni raza ni condición
Ni limites ni fronteras
Extranjero soy
Porque allá donde voy
Me llaman el extranjero
Donde quiera que estoy
El extranjero me siento
Porque allá donde voy
Me llaman el extranjero
Donde quiera que estoy
El extranjero me siento
