Translation of the song lyrics Halbin de la Selva - El Cuarteto de Nos

Halbin de la Selva (original)

Halbin de la selva
En una piragua
Halbin, hombre blanco
Arriba del agua
Halbin de los monos
Viaja por el aire
Viaja en una liana
Se dirige a El Zaire
Viaja por motivos
De tipo comercial
Halbin lleva y vende
Material artesanal
Halbin se los compra
A tribus inocentes
Halbin lo revende
A turistas indolentes
Su trabajo es duro
Mas tiene futuro
Tiene mucho seso
Halbin es progreso
Su trabajo es duro
Mas tiene futuro
Tiene mucho seso
Halbin es progreso
Su trabajo es duro
Mas tiene futuro
Tiene mucho seso
Halbin es progreso
Su trabajo es duro
Mas tiene futuro
Tiene mucho seso
Halbin es progreso
Su trabajo es duro
Mas tiene futuro
Tiene mucho seso
Halbin es progreso
Su trabajo es duro, mas
Tiene gran futuro
Tiene mucho seso

Halbin de la Selva (translation)

Jungle Halbin
in a canoe
Halbin, white man
above the water
Halbin of the monkeys
travel through the air
Travel on a vine
Heading to Zaire
travel for reasons
commercial type
Halbin carries and sells
craft supplies
Halbin buys them
to innocent tribes
Halbin resells it
to indolent tourists
His work is hard
but has a future
He has a lot of brains
Halbin is progress
His work is hard
but has a future
He has a lot of brains
Halbin is progress
His work is hard
but has a future
He has a lot of brains
Halbin is progress
your work is hard
but has a future
He has a lot of brains
Halbin is progress
His work is hard
but has a future
He has a lot of brains
Halbin is progress
His work is hard, but
has a great future
He has a lot of brains
