If I'm alone you welcome me, you are my faithful company
You speak to me sincerely and wait for me when the day begins
My guide, my lighthouse of Alexandria, if you see me lost
I look at you and eliminate sadness in a sigh

You give meaning to my existence, your disobedience
Your mere presence deserves my reverence
You, gave me a gift, you were my sword
Always locked in your prison if inspiration was lacking

From nothing you embrace me, you do not prohibit or threaten
So romantic and authentic, you never disguise yourself
Like a fairy and a firm executioner shield in battle
You, to whom I turn if others fail

You give me challenges, adventures and responsibility
You give me success and money you take away my privacy
You demand me to create, you make me tremble, dream, you heal me
You choose me to speak if the streets are silent

You undress me with tenderness and I feel your touch and your smell
If I see you fly free among the voice of a singer-songwriter
You are Opera and Flamenco, you are all I have and I love you
While you sprout between the notes of a piano

And you disintegrate me painting these black nights
You cheer me up, you invade me, you evade me, you drive away the darkness
And you always resurrect me, you never lie to me
You are the recipient where tears are poured
You are Tango and you are rhythm you live in do, re, mi, fa
Unpredictable compass when you dress in Jazz

You come and give me oxygen, my only sleeping pill
If the deadly stress tenses my muscles, disciple
Of your immense mastery when I did not know you
How could I live without perceiving your melody?

You were mine and only mine in my hours of misery
You compose the soundtrack of this tragicomedy
You queen among a thousand kings, summit of my valleys
You levitate me and thus avoid so much hatred to machine gun me
You, yes you are Hip-Hop you show denunciation and charisma
But you dress in classical and you remain the same

It's you, my luck
It's you, so strong
It's you, you, so different
You emerge and suddenly life forgets death

It's impossible to stop you if you're born from a pentagram
If the drama lies in my bed you open huge windows
Your flame never goes out, light of eternal youth
When you cry strumming a Blues guitar

You are the dirty and torn rage of Kurt Cobain
The sincere commitment of Marvin Gaye (Marvin Gaye)
The greatness of John Coltrane improvising with the sax
The childlike look in the eyes of Michael Jackson

And it's that your Son seduced me, your light left me perplexed and I fell
I revived like the sun in the form of Soul and R&B
I drank from you the elixir and resisted the blows
If I was clumsy I finally found my north, my support

Between chords of Mark Knopfler drum rolls of Hancock Herbie
From Vivaldi to Elvis, from Verdi to Chuck Berry
Immortal musical pieces make time stop
They explode like bombs causing lethal waves

Of hope, of breath and life, my great friend
Only you make all the phrases I say effective
My balance, my peace, my druid, in fatigue
Only you make the dreams I pursue come true

And without you there is no destiny, only stone and a thousand paths
Without you, I'm a mime trembling in the dressing room
But you welcome my voices if you see me disoriented
And you dance a Waltz with me just like two lovers

You are the immortal key that opens this mental prison
From Tearz by Wu Tang Clan to Ojalá by Silvio
I envy the power you impose in songs
You awaken my emotions, with creations by Ennio Morricone

Uncontrolled sensations when you are Rock n' Roll
The eroticism of a flat in the voice of Diana Krall
The electric guitar solo that breaks the silence
The harmonica hidden in the hands of Steve Wonder

I saw you where everything ends, you inhale anger with Black Sabbath
You breathe life with the calm that inspires Bob Dylan
You oscillate and possess James Brown you move his body
Along with Freddy Mercury and Ray Charles, they will never have died

And it's true no matter if you sound with a harp or an Akai
With the class of Frank Sinatra or Barry White
You are the enigmatic metric that envelops my being and saves it
The language with which the gods speak
You are music (music)
