| Aquí estamos los dos, bien frente a frente
| Here we are both, right face to face
|
| Dame tu mano, machuca la mía;
| Give me your hand, crush mine;
|
| La desgracia ha venido en este día
| Misfortune has come on this day
|
| Para ver si somos hombres de verdad
| To see if we are real men
|
| Hoy lo supe, te juro que he llorado
| Today I found out, I swear I have cried
|
| Pobrecita tu vieja, quien diría
| Poor old lady, who would say
|
| Tan guapaza, tan buena, me quería…
| So pretty, so good, she loved me...
|
| Como a vos que eras su hijo, ¿te acordás?
| As you were her son, do you remember?
|
| Desembuchá el dolor, vení sentate;
| Unleash the pain, come sit down;
|
| Olvidemos aquello que ha pasado
| Let's forget what has happened
|
| Que nos tuvo diez años distanciados
| That kept us apart for ten years
|
| Y el corazón, sin asco, nos bandeó
| And the heart, without disgust, banded us
|
| Mirame, hermano, que hace mucho tiempo
| Look at me, brother, it's been a long time
|
| Que no nos vemos, que no nos hablamos;
| That we don't see each other, that we don't talk to each other;
|
| Pensa que estamos viejos, ya blanqueamos
| Think we're old, we've already bleached
|
| Estas canas que hoy pintan la vejez
| These gray hairs that today paint old age
|
| Total, por unas trenzas y una boca
| Total, for some braids and a mouth
|
| Más roja que la sangre de esa tarde;
| Redder than the blood of that afternoon;
|
| Ninguno de los dos fuimos cobardes;
| Neither of us were cowards;
|
| Me tiraste un hachazo… me atajé
| You threw an ax at me... I cut myself off
|
| En fin, eso pasó. | Anyway, that happened. |
| ¿Estás llorando?
| You're crying?
|
| Mirá, si te hace daño mi pasado…
| Look, if my past hurts you...
|
| Después de darle un beso a la finada
| After giving the deceased a kiss
|
| Hoy yo me voy, si vos querés, pa' mí es igual | Today I'm leaving, if you want, it's the same for me |
