Se dice que todos tenemos para contar
People say that everybody has something to tell
y de lo contado tendremos otra versión.

No hay nada como el oído que sabe escuchar
There is nothing like the ear of a good listener
pero no hay sentido como el corazón.
but nothing gives meaning as the heart[/QUOTE]
