Translation of the song lyrics Bajaste Del Norte - Leon Gieco

Bajaste Del Norte (original)

Bajaste del norte
Sin mas que cuatro hijos
Y aquel cielo de tus ojos
Y una mujer que te aprendio a seguir
Buscabas el peso
Sin darte por vencido
Mas al final de cada dia
Las manos vacias
Volvias a encontrar
Por eso te entiendo
Cuando en un vaso te vas
Quien sabe adonde
Buscando eso que llaman paz
Y aunque sabes que te dicen
Viejo borracho sos tan bueno
Que ni siquiera al diablo los mandas
Los mandas

Bajaste Del Norte (translation)

you came down from the north
With no more than four children
And that sky of your eyes
And a woman who learned to follow you
you were looking for the weight
without giving up
More at the end of each day
empty hands
you found again
That's why I understand you
When in a glass you leave
who knows where
Looking for what they call peace
And although you know what they tell you
Drunk old man you're so good
That you don't even send them to hell
you send them
