I didn’t realize he was still alive! I thought he’d gone to be with his unicorn decades ago.

Oh, shit! I didn’t realize Silvio Rodríguez was alive! And he’s got a blog!? https://segundacita.blogspot.com/

I could not find it with the lyrics in English so here’s a translation from the interwebz.

========

I lost my blue unicorn yesterday
I left it grazing and it disappeared.
I will pay for every information.
The flowers it left
did not want to talk to me.

I lost my blue unicorn yesterday
I don’t know if it left me
I don’t know if it got lost
and I have nothing more
than a blue unicorn
if anyone knows about it
I beg you for information
I will pay a hundred thousand or one million.

I lost my blue unicorn yesterday it left.

My unicorn and I
we became friends,
a little bit with love
a little bith with truth.
with its indigo horn
it fished for a song
His vocation was to know how to share it.

I lost my blue unicorn yesterday
and it might nearly seem like an obsession
but I have nothing more
than a blue unicorn
and even if I had two of them
I only want that one.
I will pay you for any information.

I lost my blue unicorn yesterday
it left.

sure bud

I wouldn’t expect anything less tbh
