Ceremonias del té

1
El té de la montaña Wuyi ha llegado a mi alacena.
No preciso descubrir su color para que la montaña cante.
No preciso hervir sus hojas para que el cielo se transparente en mi ventana.
Basta con saber que hay una montaña sosteniendo su aroma,
y en esa bendición que llega, una bandada de patos:
bendición de primavera en una habitación porteña
acunada
por el invierno de Piazzolla.

2
Las flores alimentan al cangrejo.
Así nace el sabor inconfundible de la nostalgia:
el maestro preparando una taza de té para invocar la poesía.
Los jardines del té, diversos y hermosos como la poesía, han crecido en mi memoria.
Muchas flores abonaron el suelo, y de esa glamorosa muerte
nació el cangrejo que ha guiado mi nostalgia.
Ahora, en esta tarde en que el maestro vuelve a decir su palabra,
con una mano sostengo la taza y con la otra tapo su boca, para que el cangrejo de la nostalgia
que habita en el té, no escape y se convierta en una flor de luto.

Lyrics by Carlos J. Aldazábal
