La Torre De babel(original) |
En la Torre de Babel |
Vivían cincuenta cigarros |
Vivían amontonados |
Hechos todos de papel |
Uno a uno alineados |
Todos muy bien formados |
El más pequeño era aquel |
Y se llamaba Gabriel |
Tabaco fino, algodones |
Iban a ver el río |
Iban cantando canciones |
Muertos de frío |
La pasión de Gabriel |
Era nadar en el río |
Le contó de esto a su tío |
Que era un cigarro de miel |
Su tío que era muy viejo |
No le puso reparos |
Y cuando llegó el habano |
Forrado entero de café |
«Dónde se metió Gabriel» |
Preguntó inquieto el habano |
«Se fue con otros cigarros |
A ver el río correr» |
«No lo puedo creer |
Eres muy mal ciudadano |
Pues tu sobrino y hermano |
Tal vez nunca pueda volver» |
Cuando llegó el habano |
A la orilla del río |
Vió un pequeño cigarro |
Muerto, abierto y tendido |
Estaba todo mojado |
Sin señales de vida |
El tabaco se desprendía |
Quedaba desparramado |
Tristeza, llantos, lamentos |
Reinarán desde hoy en Babel |
Se nos ha muerto Gabriel |
Todo ha quedado en silencio |
Solamente un buen fuego |
Puede dar muerte a un cigarro |
Pero si muere ahogado es igual |
Que si a un hombre lo mataran colgado |
Colgaaaadoooo |
Colgaaaadooo… |
(translation) |
At the Tower of Babel |
Fifty cigars lived |
They lived crowded |
All made of paper |
One by one lined up |
all very well trained |
The smallest was that |
And his name was Gabriel |
Fine tobacco, cottons |
They were going to see the river |
They were singing songs |
dead of cold |
Gabriel's Passion |
It was swimming in the river |
He told his uncle about this |
That he was a honey cigar |
His uncle who was very old |
He didn't object |
And when the cigar arrived |
Whole lined with coffee |
«Where did Gabriel go» |
asked the Cuban restlessly |
«He left with other cigarettes |
To see the river run» |
"I can't believe it |
you are a very bad citizen |
Well, your nephew and brother |
Maybe he can never come back" |
When the cigar arrived |
By the river |
He saw a little cigar |
Dead, open and lying |
he was all wet |
no signs of life |
The tobacco fell off |
was scattered |
Sadness, tears, regrets |
They will reign from today in Babel |
If Gabriel has died |
Everything has gone silent |
just a good fire |
It can kill a cigarette |
But if he drowns it's the same |
That if a man was killed by hanging |
hanging |
Hang on… |
