Porque mi cuerpo es la tierra
Mi agua viene con sangre
Porque mi espíritu es fuego
y mi palabra es el aire

Con mi aliento yo curo
Con mi tabaco yo rezo
A mis abuelos les pido
La memoria de mi compromiso
Con mi aliento yo curo
Con mi tabaco yo rezo
Veo en el fuego el futuro
La memoria regresa a mi pueblo

Translation

Because my body is the earth
My water flows as blood
Because my spirit is fire
And my word is the air

With my breath I heal
With my tobacco I pray
To my grandparents I ask
The memory of my commitment
With my breath I heal
With my tobacco I pray
In the fire I see
The memory returns to my people

Con Mi Tabaco

Hernán Savastano is an Argentine-American singer-songwriter based in the Pacific Northwest. He composes acoustic, heart-centered songs that celebrate the majesty of nature and chronicle his life's journey working with Mother Earth's timeless medicines. 

Born in Buenos Aires and raised in the United States after his family fled political unrest, Hernán’s story spans continents and cultures. After early years in Seattle’s folk scene with the duo Sweetheart Army and later the band La Dulce Vida, his music has evolved into a deeply personal blend of folk, soul, and reflection. HIs debut album, Mi Canción, marks a new chapter—one rooted in authenticity, gratitude, and the healing power of song.
