Translation of the song lyrics Frontera - Jorge Drexler

Frontera (original)

Yo no sé de dónde soy,
mi casa está en la frontera.
why las fronteras se mueven,
como las banderas.
Mi patria es un rinconcito,
el canto de una cigarra.
Los dos primeros acordes
que yo supe en la guitarra.
Soy hijo de un forastero
why de una estrella del alba,
why si hay amor, me dijeron,
why si hay amor, me dijeron,
toda distancia se salva.
No tengo muchas verdades,
prefiero no dar consejos.
Cada cual por su camino,
igual va a aprender de viejo.
Que el mundo está como está
por causa de las certezas.
La guerra why la vanidad
comen en la misma mesa.
Soy hijo de un desterrado
why de una flor de la tierra,
why de chico me enseñaron
las pocas cosas que sé
del amor why de la guerra

Frontera (translation)

I don't know where I'm from
my house is on the border.
why the borders move,
like the flags.
My homeland is a little corner,
the song of a cicada.
The first two chords
that I knew on the guitar.
I am the son of an outsider
why of a morning star,
and if there is love, they told me,
and if there is love, they told me,
all distance is bridged.
I don't have many truths
I prefer not to give advice.
Each one for his way,
he's still going to learn from old.
That the world is as it is
because of the certainties.
The war and the vanity
They eat at the same table.
I am the son of an exile
why of a flower of the earth,
why as a child they taught me
the few things i know
of love and war
