Lyrics of Pan - Carlos Gardel

Pan (original)

El sabe que tiene para rato largo
La sentencia en fija lo va ahacer sonar
Asi, entre cabrero, sumiso y amargo
La luz de la aurora lo va a saludar
Quisiera que alguno pudiera escucharlo
En esa elocuencia que las penas dan
Y ver si es humano querer condenarlo
Por haber robado un cacho de pan
Sus pibes no lloran por llorar
Ni piden masitas
Ni dulces, ni chiches, Señor!
Sus pibes se mueren de frio
Y lloran habrientos de pan
La abuela se queja de dolor
Doliente reproche que ofende a su hombria
También su mujer, escualida y flaca, en una mirada
Toda la tragedia le ha dado a entender
@Trabajar?
@Adonde?
Extender la mano
Pididendo al que pasa, limosna, @por que?
Recibir la afrenta de un «perdone hermano»
El que es fuerte y tiene valor y altivez
Se durmieron todos, cacho la barreta
Se puso la gorra resuelto a robar
Un vidrio, unos gritos carreras, auxilio
Un hombre que llora y un cacho de pan

(translation)

He knows he has a long time
The fixed sentence is going to make it sound
Thus, between goatherd, submissive and bitter
The light of the dawn will greet you
I wish someone could hear it
In that eloquence that sorrows give
And see if he is human want to condemn him
For having stolen a piece of bread
His kids don't cry for crying
They don't even ask for dumplings
No sweets, no gums, Lord!
His kids are dying of cold
And they cry hungry for bread
Grandma complains of pain
Painful reproach that she offends his manhood
Also his wife, emaciated and skinny, in a look
All the tragedy has given him to understand
@To work?
@Where to?
Reach out
Asking what happens, alms, @why?
Receiving the affront of a "excuse me brother"
He who is strong and has courage and haughtiness
They all fell asleep, I hit the jimmy
He put on his cap determined to steal
A glass, some racing cries, help
A crying man and a piece of bread
