Lynx, by Ornatos Violeta

A bird said me that you will not be here anymore

‘Cause I didn’t have the idea of your end.

What I thought was that you would exist forever

I just want you can stay in your home more one day.

But what I see now is that Man destroyed you

He lost himself in your beautiful fluff.

He only wanted to earn more and more money

And now my little feline the sun will not rise for you tomorrow

You are paying for our big mistakes

You are paying for our big mistakes

You and the others are paying for Man mistakes.

A bird said me that he was really unhappy

He liked the way you run at night in the mountain

But the bird hadn’t seen you last days

And he didn’t understand why

How can you disappear in a so short time?

I explained him that the Man is cruel

He don’t care about the others

He hasn’t any scruples

He destroys all the things where he passes

And for him it doesn’t matter

You are paying for our big mistakes

You are paying for our big mistakes

You and the others are paying for Man mistakes.

Man has to say you one day

Sorry, you paid for our big mistakes

Sorry, you paid for our big mistakes

And now is too late for you

The mountain is desert now

We can’t see you anywhere

There are lots of buildings

And an intensive gunpowder smell

And what about you?

Where are you?

Come to me now. What’s this?

A hard hour, a bad hour.

To remember us that not all the things are forgivable,

My darling Lynx.
