She said she was a maiden
That wasn't what I heard
For the sake of conversation
I took her at her word
The lights went out behind us
The fireflies undressed
The broken sidewalk ended
I touched her sleeping breasts
They opened to me urgently
Likelilies from the dead
Behind a fine embroidery
Her nipples rose like bread
Then I took of my necktie
And she took of her dress
My belt and pistol set aside
We tore away the rest
The night of Santiago
And I was passing through
So I took her to the river
As any man would do
Her thighs they slipped away from me
Like schools of startled fish
Though I've forgotten half my life
I still remember this
Now, as a man I won't repeat
The things she said aloud
Except for this, my lips are sealed forever
And for now
And soon there's sand in every kiss
And soon the dawn is ready
And soon the night surrenders
To a daffodil machete
I gave her something pretty
And I waited till she laughed
I wasn't born a gypsy
To make a women sad
The night of Santiago
And I was passing through
I took her to the river
As any man would do
The night of Santiago
And I was passing through
I took her to the river
As any man would do
I didn't fall in love of course
It's never up to you
But she was walking back and forth
And I was passing through
When I took her to the river
In her virginal apparel
When I took her to the river
On that night of Santiago
And yes she lied about it all
Her children and her husband
You were born to judge the world
Forgive me but I wasn't
The night of Santiago
And I was passing through
So I took her to the river
As any man would do
The night of Santiago
And I was passing through
So I took her to the river
As any man would do
The night of Santiago
And I was passing through
So I took her to the river
As any man would do

Leonard Norman Eliezer Cohen (Montreal, 21 settembre 1934 – Los Angeles, 7 novembre 2016) è stato un cantautore, poeta, scrittore e compositore canadese di origine canadese-israeliana. Considerato uno dei cantautori più influenti del XX secolo, Cohen ha raggiunto fama internazionale con il suo stile musicale caratterizzato da melodie malinconiche e testi poetici che esploravano temi come la religione, l'amore, la perdita e la spiritualità. La sua carriera artistica è durata oltre cinque decenni, durante i quali ha pubblicato 14 album in studio, vendendo milioni di copie in tutto il mondo. Cohen ha iniziato la sua carriera come poeta pubblicando diversi libri di versi prima di dedicarsi alla musica negli anni '60. Il suo debutto discografico, *Songs of Leonard Cohen*, risale al 1967 e include brani diventati classici come "Suzanne" e "So Long, Marianne". Nel corso degli anni '70 e '80 ha esplorato nuovi generi musicali, collaborando con artisti come John Cale e i suoi album *New Skin for the Old Ceremony* (1974) e *Various Positions* (1984) hanno riscosso grande successo. Nel 2001 ha pubblicato l'album *Ten New Songs*, che ha segnato un ritorno alla forma musicale più tradizionale. Oltre alla musica, Cohen è stato anche un prolifico scrittore di romanzi, saggi e poesie. La sua opera letteraria è stata ampiamente riconosciuta e premiata. Nel 2016, poco prima della sua morte, ha pubblicato il suo ultimo album *You Want It Darker*. Leonard Cohen è ricordato come una figura iconica della musica e della cultura contemporanea, la cui eredità continua a ispirare artisti e appassionati di musica in tutto il mondo.

J'ai l'impression qu'avant d'aborder le sujet traité dans cet article je dois faire une prémisse: le reggaeton n'est pas vraiment mon genre préféré, il se réfugie dans un rythme très banal avec des textes que 99% du temps décrivent la femme comme un objet disponible à l'homme macho.
