Cancion para Carito (original)Cancion para Carito (translation)
en un banco en la ciudad, in a bank in the city,
con tu mirada with your look
recordando el litoral. remembering the coastline
Tu suerte quiso estar partida: Your luck wanted to be split:
mitad verdad, mitad mentira, half truth, half lie,
como esperanza de los pobres prometida. as promised hope of the poor.
Andando solo walking alone
bajo la llovizna gris, under the gray drizzle,
fingiendo duro faking hard
que tu vida fue de aqui. that your life was from here.
Porque cambiaste un mar de gente, Because you changed a sea of ​​people,
por donde gobierna la flor?, Where does the flower rule?
mira que el rio nunca regalo el color. look that the river never gave the color.
Carito: suelta tu pena, Carito: let go of your sorrow,
se haga de amante tus lagrimas your tears become a lover
entre mis cuerdas. Between my strings
Carito: suelta tu piedra Carito: drop your stone
para volar como el zorzal to fly like the thrush
en primavera. in spring.
En Buenos Aires In Buenos Aires
los zapatos son modernos, the shoes are modern,
pero no lucen but they don't look
como en la plaza de un pueblo. as in a town square.
Deja que tu luz chiquitita Let your little light
hable en secreto a la cancion speak secretly to the song
para que te ilumine un poco mas el sol. so that the sun illuminates you a little more.
Cualquier semilla any seed
cuando es planta quiere ver when it is plant wants to see
la misma estrella the same star
de aquel atardecer; of that evening;
que la salvo del pico agudo, that saved her from the sharp peak,
refugiandola a lo oscuro sheltering her in the dark
de la gaviota, arrasadora de los surcos. of the seagull, destroyer of the furrows.
Carito: yo soy tu amigo, Carito: I am your friend,
me ofrezco arbol I offer myself tree
para tu nido. for your nest.
Carito: suelta tu canto Carito: release your song
que el abanico that the fan
de mi acordeon of my accordion
lo esta esperando.is waiting for you.
