"Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto Me ha dado el sonido y el abecedario Con él, las palabras que pienso y declaro Madre, amigo, hermano Y luz alumbrando la ruta del alma del que estoy amando Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto Me ha dado la marcha de mis pies cansados Con ellos anduve ciudades y charcos Playas y desiertos, montañas y llanos Y la casa tuya, tu calle y tu patio" Violeta Parra - Gracias a la Vida Tiago S.
