Con la Frente Marchita (original)Con la Frente Marchita (translation)
Sentados en corro merendábamos besos y porros Sitting in a circle we ate kisses and joints
Y las horas pasaban deprisa entre el humo y la risa And the hours passed quickly between smoke and laughter
Te morías por volver «Con la frente marchita» cantaba Gardel You were dying to return "With a withered forehead" Gardel sang
Y entre citas de Borges, Evita bailaba con Freud And between quotes from Borges, Evita danced with Freud
Ya llovió desde aquel chaparrón hasta hoy She already rained from that downpour until today
Iba cada domingo a tu puesto del Rastro a comprarte I used to go every Sunday to your market stall to buy you
Carricoches de miga de pan, soldaditos de lata Carricoches of breadcrumbs, little tin soldiers
Con agüita del mar Andaluz quise yo enamorarte With little water from the Andalusian sea I wanted to fall in love with you
Pero tú no querías más amor que el del Río de la Plata But you didn't want more love than the one from the Río de la Plata
Duró la tormenta hasta entrados los años ochenta The storm lasted well into the 1980s
Luego, el sol fue secando la ropa de la vieja Europa Then the sun was drying the clothes of old Europe
No hay nostalgia peor que añorar lo que nunca, jamás, sucedió There is no nostalgia worse than longing for what never, ever happened
«Mándame una postal de San Telmo, adiós, ¡cuídate!" — “Send me a postcard from San Telmo, goodbye, take care of yourself!” —
Y sonó entre tú y yo el silbato del tren… And the train whistle sounded between you and me...
Iba cada domingo a tu puesto del Rastro a comprarte I used to go every Sunday to your market stall to buy you
Monigotes de miga de pan, caballitos de lata Bread crumb dolls, tin horses
Con agüita del mar Andaluz quise yo enamorarte With little water from the Andalusian sea I wanted to fall in love with you
Pero tú no querías otro amor que el del Río de la Plata But you didn't want any other love than that of the Río de la Plata
Aquellas banderas de la patria de la primavera Those flags of the spring homeland
A decirme que existe el olvido, esta noche han venido To tell me that oblivion exists, tonight they have come
Te sentaba tan bien, esa boina calada al estilo del «Che» It suited you so well, that openwork beret in the style of «Che»
Buenos Aires es como contabas, hoy fui a pasear Buenos Aires is like you said, today I went for a walk
Y al llegar a la Plaza de Mayo me dio por llorar And when I got to the Plaza de Mayo I started to cry
Y me puse a gritar: «¿Dónde estás?» And I started yelling, "Where are you?"
Y no volví más a tu puesto del Rastro a comprarte And I never went back to your Rastro stall to buy from you
Corazones de miga de pan, sombreritos de lata Breadcrumb hearts, little tin hats
Y ya nadie me escribe diciendo: And no one writes to me saying:
«No consigo olvidarte, ojalá que estuvieras conmigo en el Río de La Plata»«I can't forget you, I wish you were with me in the Río de La Plata»
