lyrics

Tximistak jotako zuhaitza da
haren gorputza
haizeteek etzana izotzak errea
larru-azal sakona du
iluna aspaldian
gerrek
bakardadeak
erabat ondatu gabea

Oin-puntetan datoz urtaroak aspaldi
amaren loa ez aztoratzeko
sehaska kantu bat enbor nekatuentzat
zapata berriak egunsentirako

egur zaharreko armadura du
orbainez betea
poliki-poliki
amaierara itzultzen ari dena
gorputz okerra du
tematia
maizegi kimatu dute
baina arratsero lokartzen da


Her body
is a tree hit by lightning
toppled over by the wind, burnt by ice
her skin is deep,
dark lately,
wars and
loneliness
have not fully damaged it

Lately, seasons come on tiptoes
not to wake up mum
a lullaby for an exhausted body
new shoes for dawn

she has the armour of old wood
full of scars
who little by little
is reaching the end
she has got a bent body
she is stubborn
she has been chopped down very often
but every afternoon she falls asleep
