La plume [English translation]

I give you the pen so that you will draw

The most beautiful town you have ever seen

The most beautiful hymn you have ever wanted

I give you the pen, I want more of it

I give you the pen to know how to live

To speak, to write, and to dance

To stay awake drunk

I give you the pen and all my shit

Keep them

This is the hour I've been waiting for

See, my heart cautiously coming out

To count the hours long since past

Has returned, my heart cast off in leaving

I give you the pen so that you inscribe

Perpetually the life to construct

This difficult movement

I give you the pen

I want more of it

This is the hour I've been waiting for

See, my heart cautiously coming out

To count the hours long since past

Has returned, my heart cast off in leaving

This is the hour I've been waiting for

See, my heart cautiously coming out

To count the hours long since past

Has returned, my heart cast off in leaving
