Composer’s Notes
When was the last time you were hungry and could not immediately eat? or thirsty and could not find water for hours? This is heartbreaking: to see my country, my family, suffering. I come from Venezuela and I did go through difficult times. Since I could not do much from where I was to help, I decided to fight my pain. I asked myself all the questions and cried while working on my desk, so comfortable yet feeling so guilty and helpless. When was the last time you were sick and could not find the medicine to feel better or even to keep living?
-Carlos Cordero
Text
Mírame, (Look at me,)
Escúchame. (Listen to me.)
Estoy Sufriendo. (I’m suffering.)
No puedo ver, (I cannot see,)
Tengo hambre, (I am hungry,)
Tengo sed, (I am thirsty,)
Estoy Enfermo. (I am sick.)
¡Ayúdame! (Help me!)
