Las cuarenta (Tango) (original)Las cuarenta (Tango) (translation)
Con el pucho de la vida apretado entre los labios With the fist of life pressed between the lips
La mirada turbia y fría, un poco lerdo el andar The cloudy and cold look, a little slow to walk
Dobló la esquina del barrio y, curda ya de recuerdos She turned the corner of the neighborhood and, already thick with memories
Como volcando un veneno esto se le oyó acusar Like pouring out a poison this was heard to accuse
Vieja calle de mi barrio donde he dado el primer paso Old street in my neighborhood where I took the first step
Vuelvo a vos, gastado el mazo en inútil barajar I return to you, spent the deck in useless shuffling
Con una llaga en el pecho, con mi sueño hecho pedazos With a sore on my chest, with my dream shattered
Que se rompió en un abrazo que me diera la verdad That she broke into a hug to give me the truth
Aprendí todo lo malo, aprendí todo lo bueno I learned all the bad, I learned all the good
Sé del beso que se compra, sé del beso que se da; I know about the kiss that is bought, I know about the kiss that is given;
Del amigo que es amigo, siempre y cuando le convenga Of the friend who is a friend, as long as it suits him
Y sé que con mucha plata uno vale mucho más And I know that with a lot of money one is worth much more
Aprendí que en esta vida hay que llorar si otros lloran I learned that in this life you have to cry if others cry
Y, si la murga se ríe, hay que saberse reír; And, if the murga laughs, you have to know how to laugh;
No pensar ni equivocado… ¡Para qué, si igual se vive! Do not think even wrong... Why, if you live the same!
¡Y además corrés el riesgo de que te bauticen gil! And besides, you run the risk of being baptized as a gil!
La vez que quise ser bueno en la cara se me rieron; The time I wanted to be good to the face they laughed at me;
Cuando grité una injusticia, la fuerza me hizo callar; When I shouted an injustice, force silenced me;
La experiencia fue mi amante;The experience was my lover;
el desengaño, mi amigo… disappointment, my friend...
Toda carta tiene contra y toda contra se da! Every card has against and every against is given!
Hoy no creo ni en mí mismo.. Todo es grupo, todo es falso Today I don't even believe in myself. Everything is a group, everything is false
Y aquel, el que está más alto, es igual a los demás… And the one, the one who is higher, is equal to the others...
Por eso, no has de extrañarte, si alguna noche, borracho Therefore, you should not be surprised, if some night, drunk
Me vieras pasar del brazo con quien no debo pasarYou saw me walk arm in arm with who I shouldn't walk
