Canta Viejo Canta(original) |
Me siento a oírte todos los días |
vas a contarme penas, y alegrías |
Tus tantos años te han arrugado ya |
y ahora te queda melancolía |
Con tu figura tan demacrada ya |
con tus cabellos con tantas canas ya |
con tus heridas, te has resignado ya |
y pasa el tiempo, de mi lado te vas |
Por eso canta una canción conmigo |
canta un valsecito añejo, canta |
porque sino el tiempo no te va a alcanzar |
Caminemos otro rato |
¡Viva!, ¡Viva!, ¡Viva!, tu pasado |
Sígueme dando consejos, para mi verdad |
Cuántas vueltas da la vida |
y de repente cuando al abrir la puerta |
me encuentre junto a una soledad siniestra |
Sin tus palabras y tus consejos |
que cuando viejo ya no harán falta |
Cuantas vueltas da la vida y pensar que hace |
no sé veinte o treinta años |
me llevabas de la mano |
por la placita del barrio |
dándome los primeros consejos |
Y hoy, yo un poquito más cansado |
tú más viejo y arrugado |
los dos juntos caminamos |
por la placita del barrio |
Pero ahora, ahora todo está cambiado |
mira aquellos niños pequeños |
que ves jugando en la tierra |
no son los mismos de entonces |
con los que yo jugaba |
esos son los hijos de mis amigos |
Y ahora yo, yo estoy como tú |
en aquella época dándole uno de tus consejos |
al mayor de mis dos hijos |
Te das cuenta cuántas vueltas da la vida |
Por eso,¡Bravo! |
viejo, ¡Viva |
que supiste de ilusiones |
cuando menos las tenías |
Y te graduaste de hombre |
y te graduaste de hombre |
en la escuela de la vida |
(translation) |
I sit down to hear you every day |
you are going to tell me sorrows, and joys |
Your many years have already wrinkled you |
and now you have melancholy |
With your figure so emaciated already |
with your hair with so many gray hairs already |
with your wounds, you have already resigned yourself |
and time passes, from my side you leave |
So sing a song with me |
sing a little old waltz, sing |
because otherwise time will not reach you |
let's walk another while |
Long live! Long live! Your past |
Follow me giving advice, for me truth |
How many turns does life take? |
and suddenly when opening the door |
I found myself next to a sinister solitude |
Without your words and your advice |
that when old they will no longer be needed |
How many turns does life take and think what it does |
I don't know twenty or thirty years |
you took me by the hand |
through the neighborhood square |
giving me the first advice |
And today, I a little more tired |
you older and wrinkled |
the two of us walk together |
through the neighborhood square |
But now, now everything is changed |
look at those little kids |
what do you see playing on the ground |
they are not the same as then |
with whom I played |
those are the children of my friends |
And now I, I'm like you |
at that time giving him one of your advice |
the older of my two sons |
You realize how many turns life takes |
For that, bravo! |
old man, long live |
what did you know about illusions |
when you least had them |
And you graduated from man |
and you graduated from man |
in the school of life |
