Translation of the song lyrics El Sur Del Sur - Jorge Drexler

El Sur Del Sur (original)

Al sur del sur hay un sitio que está olvidado
Que está cerrado como un baúl
El viento cruza la calle buscando abrigo
Y no hay testigos al sur del sur
«No vayas, la ruta no es buena…» -me dicen-
«No vayas, no vale la pena…»
El tiempo al sur del sur, se ha detenido
Se ha distraído con no sé qué
Y el aire es en realidad una gelatina
Tan cristalina que no se ve
«No vayas, la ruta no existe
Después no digas: 'No me lo advertiste'»
«No pierdas tu sitio en la mesa» -me dicen-
«No vayas, ¿a quién le interesa?»
Si hubiera en total dos sitios, sería el segundo
El fin del mundo, el sur del sur

El Sur Del Sur (translation)

South of the south there is a place that is forgotten
that is closed like a trunk
The wind crosses the street looking for shelter
And there are no witnesses south of south
"Don't go, the route isn't good..." -they tell me-
"Don't go, it's not worth it..."
The time south of the south, has stopped
He got distracted with I don't know what
And the air is actually a jelly
So crystal clear that it cannot be seen
"Don't go, the route doesn't exist
Then don't say: 'You didn't warn me'»
"Don't lose your place at the table" -they tell me-
"Don't go, who cares?"
If there were a total of two sites, it would be the second
The end of the world, the south of the south
