| Triste cancionero cargadito de penas
| Sad songbook full of sorrows
|
| Como el canto una muerte salpico
| As I sing a splash death
|
| Cacho de penuras hoy, vienen flotando
| Piece of hardship today, they come floating
|
| Triste marabunta empuja, empuja dolor
| Sad crowd pushes, pushes pain
|
| Minutaría que neptuno dio un grito y los callara
| I would minute that neptune gave a shout and shut them up
|
| Y nuestra basurilla en la casa se plantara
| And our garbage in the house will be planted
|
| Escucha el canto, el canto del agua, que dice:
| She listens to the song, the song of the water, which says:
|
| Ay en la arena dolor (x8)
| Oh in the sand pain (x8)
|
| Hoy te canto como, cuando lloro
| Today I sing to you like, when I cry
|
| Sin disimulo ni pudor
| Without dissimulation or shame
|
| Que si la mama se nos muere
| That if our mom dies
|
| No ay futuro, se pierde la marca, la guía, la dirección
| There is no future, the mark, the guide, the direction is lost
|
| Canto de peno, canto de rabia
| I sing of sorrow, I sing of rage
|
| Canto de dolor, canto al muerto (x2)
| I sing of pain, I sing to the dead (x2)
|
| Ay en la arena dolor… | Oh pain in the sand… |
