La Maza [English translation]

If I did not believe in the madness

in the throat of the mockingbird

if I did not believe that in the bush

are hiding the song and the terror.

If I did not believe in the balance

in the justice of equilibrium

if I did not believe in delirium

if I did not believe in hope.

if I did not believe in what I do

if I did not believe in my path

if I did not believe in my sound

if I did not believe in my silence.

what would it be

what would the mason's hammer be without the stone

a heap made of cords and tendons

a confusion of flesh with wood

an instrument of no more brilliance

than the little lights set up to illuminate a stage

what would it be- -my heart- what would it be

what would the mason's hammer be without the stone

a front-man for the double-dealer of the applauses

a server of the old in a new cup

one who would make eternal the declining gods

exaltation cooked up with rags and sequins

what would it be- -my heart- what would it be

what would the mason's hammer be without the stone

what would it be- -my heart- what would it be

what would the mason's hammer be without the stone

If I did not believe in what was most difficult

if I did not believe in desire

if I did not believe in what I believe

if I did not believe in something pure.

if I did not believe in every wound

if I did not believe in what was around me

if I did not believe in what concealed itself

become a brother to life.

if I did not believe in those who listened to me

if I did not believe in what is painful

if I did not believe in that which remains

if I did not believe in what I am fighting for.

what would it be- -my heart- what would it be

what would the mason's hammer be without the stone

what would it be- -my heart- what would it be

what would the mason's hammer be without the stone
