El Viejo Matias (original)El Viejo Matias (translation)
La lluvia y el viento eran dos hermanos The rain and the wind were two brothers
Corriendo furiosos por el terrapln Running furious down the embankment
Y en un banco oscuro mojado y mugriento And on a wet and grimy dark bench
l se acomodaba su uniforme gris He was adjusting his gray uniform
El viejo Matas duerme en cualquier parte Old Matas sleeps anywhere
Un fantasma errante le toca la piel A wandering ghost touches her skin
Pero cuando llueve sus despojos buscan But when it rains the spoils of him seek
La estacin de chapas de Paso del Rey The Paso del Rey sheet metal station
Es cuco de nios y de no tan nios He is cuckoo of children and not so children
Su figura triste cruzando el andn His sad figure of him crossing the platform
Porque nadie ha visto sus ojos cansados Because no one has seen his tired eyes
La cruz del olvido temblando en sus pies The cross of oblivion trembling at its feet
A veces murmura cosas incoherentes Sometimes he mutters incoherent things
Habla de la guerra, imita el can Talk about the war, imitate the dog
Y otras veces pone en sus ojos un nio And other times he puts in his eyes a child
Y acuna en sus brazos su bolso marrn And he cradles her brown bag in his arms
Cuando llegan trenes repletos de obreros When trains full of workers arrive
Se pone contento, brilla su mirar He gets happy, his look shines
Gorrin de la tarde quiere hablar con todos Sparrow of the afternoon he wants to talk to everyone
Y despus se queda solo en el andn And then he stays alone on the platform
Se queda mirando las vas vacas He stares at the empty vases
La luz que se pierde, el tren que pas The light that is lost, the train that passed
Y despus se aleja murmurando cosas And then he walks away muttering things
El viejo Matas ogro del lugarThe old Matas ogre of the place
