Cantares

Todo pasa y todo queda,
pero lo nuestro es pasar,
pasar haciendo caminos,
caminos sobre la mar.
Nunca perseguí la gloria,
ni dejar en la memoria
de los hombres mi canción.
Yo amo los mundos sutiles,
ingrávidos y gentiles,
como pompas de jabón.
Me gusta verlos pintar
sede sol y grana, volar
bajo el cielo azul, temblar
subitamente y quebrarse.
Nunca perseguí la gloria...
Caminante, son tus huellas el camino y nada más.
Caminante, no hay camino. Se hace camino al andar.
Al andar se hace camino y al volver la vista atrás
se ve la senda que nunca se ha de volver a pisar.
Caminante, no hay camino sino estelas en la mar.
Hace algún tiempo en ese lugar
donde hoy los bosques se visten de espinos
se oyó la voz de un poeta gritar:
«Caminante no hay camino, se hace camino al andar...»
golpe a golpe, verso a verso...
Murio el poeta lejos del hogar
lo cubre el polvo de un pais vesino
al alegarse lo vieron llorar
«Caminante no hay camino, se hace camino al andar...»
golpe a golpe, verso a verso...
Cuando el jilguero no puede cantar.
Cuando el poeta es un peregrino.
Cuando de nada nos sirve rezar.
«Caminante no hay camino, se hace camino al andar...»
golpe a golpe, verso a verso
golpe a golpe, verso a verso
golpe a golpe, verso a verso...
