Con su boina calada, con sus guantes de seda,
su sirena varada, sus fiestas de guardar,
su vuelva usted maana, su salvese quien pueda,
su partidita de mus, su fulanita de tal.
Con su todo es ahora, con su nada es eterno,
con su rap y su chotis, con su okupa y su skin,
aunque muera el verano y tenga prisa el invierno
la primavera sabe que la espero en Madrid.
Con su otoo Velazquez, con su Torre Picasso,
su santo y su torero, su Atleti, su Borbn,
sus gordas de Botero, sus hoteles de paso,
Su taleguito de hash, sus abuelitos al sol.
Con su hoguera de nieve, su verbena y su duelo,
su dieciocho de julio, su catorce de abril.
A mitad de camino entre el infierno y el cielo...
yo me bajo en Atocha, yo me quedo en Madrid.
Aunque la noche delire como un pajaro en llamas,
aunque no d a la gloria la Puerta de Alcala,
aunque la maja desnuda cobre quince y la cama,
aunque la maja vestida no se deje besar.
Pasarela Cibeles, carcel de Yeserias,
Puente de los Franceses, tascas de Chamberi,
ya no suea aquel nio que so que escribia,
Corazn de Maria, no me dejes asi...
Corte de los Milagros, Virgen de la Almudena,
chabolas de uralita, Palacio de Cristal,
con su "no pasaran" con sus "vivan las caenas",
su cementerio civil, su banda municipal.
He llorado en Venecia,
me he perdido en Manhattan,
he crecido en La Habana, he sido un paria en Paris,
Mxico me atormenta, Buenos Aires me mata,
pero siempre hay un tren
que desemboca en Madrid.
Pero siempre hay un nio que envejece en Madrid,
pero siempre hay un coche que derrapa en Madrid,
pero siempre hay un fuego
que se enciende en Madrid,
pero siempre hay un barco que naufraga en Madrid,
pero siempre hay un sueo
que despierta en Madrid,
pero siempre hay un vuelo de regreso a Madrid.

Joaquín Sabina (nato Joaquín Ramón Martínez Sabina il 15 luglio 1949 a Úbeda, Spagna) è uno dei cantautori più influenti e amati della musica latina. Conosciuto per la sua poesia incisiva, le melodie accattivanti e la voce rauca, Sabina ha conquistato un pubblico vastissimo in tutta l'America Latina e nel mondo ibero-parlante. ???? Il suo percorso musicale inizia negli anni '60 con esperienze in gruppi rock e cantautori spagnoli. Nel 1975 pubblica il suo primo album, "Inventario", che lo introduce al pubblico spagnolo. Negli anni successivi, Sabina consolida la sua fama con album come "Malas compañías" (1982), "19 días y 500 noches" (1984) e "El viaje" (1989). Le sue canzoni spesso trattano temi sociali, politici e personali, sempre con un tocco di ironia e sarcasmo. Sabina è noto per le sue collaborazioni con altri artisti come Joan Manuel Serrat, Fito Páez e Miguel Ríos. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo "Y nos dieron las diez", "La Mandrágora", "Contigo" e "Pajarita de papel". Oltre alla musica, Sabina è anche un poeta di talento, con diverse raccolte di versi pubblicate.
