Me gustan los pueblos chicos de gesto antiguo
Son gente que da la mano y saluda al sol
Que sabe ganar la vida y ganar la muerte
Allá me voy a vivir
Con gente que planta un árbol y enciende amor.
Me iré por aquel camino que lleva al pueblo
Que crece entre la ternura que da el maíz
Me iré con la lucha a cuestas y el alma abierta
Allá me voy a vivir
Con toda la fuerza antigua de mi raíz.
La gente estará cantando la vida nueva
Que esta creciendo en los pueblos chicos
Los pueblos de gesto antiguo
Con gente que da la mano.
Me voy a cantar con ellos hasta que el alba
Rocié el campo de aroma puro.
Sencillo como la lluvia
Profundo como la paz.
Los pueblos de gesto antiguo se dan la mano
Los pueblos se dan la mano para vencer
Los pueblos que van creciendo como los vientos
Allá me voy a vivir
En ese pueblo tan chico que va a nacer.
