solo le pido a dios

last night i heard a song while making 2 martinis.
i always hear songs while making martinis.
but this one shook my shaker.  this one shook my ice.  my olives.
i stopped shaking and listened.
and i wrote down the title.  and her name:

mercedes sosa.

today i found the song and downloaded it.
here's just one version.

oh yeah, my martini tasted better like it, too, was toasting
her words, her voice, her eternal spirit.
