I love to be alone



Aquí va una cancioncita compuesta con textos
seleccionados de “Walden, la vida en los bosques”
(“Walden, or Life in the Woods”), de Henry David Thoreau,
Capítulo 5, Soledad.

Letra: Henry David Thoreau
Música, guitarra y voz: Douglas Wright 


I love to be alone

This is a delicious evening,
when the whole body is one sense,
I go and come with a strange liberty
in Nature, a part of herself.

Sympathy with the fluttering
alder and poplar leaves
almost takes away my breath,
takes away my breath.


I have my horizon bounded
by woods all to myself;
I have, as it were,
my own sun
and moon and stars,
and a little world
all to myself.


I find it wholesome
to be alone
the greater part of the time,
to be alone.

I never found the companion
that was so companionable
as solitude.
I love to be alone.


I have my horizon bounded
by woods all to myself;
I have, as it were,
my own sun
and moon and stars,
and a little world
all to myself.


I find it wholesome
to be alone
the greater part of the time,
to be alone.

I never found the companion
that was so companionable
as solitude.
I love to be alone…

as solitude,
I love to be alone…

I love to be alone…

I love to be alone.
