Para Cantar He Nacido (original)Para Cantar He Nacido (translation)
Para cantar he nacido I was born to sing
Soy copla que el viento lleva I am a couplet that the wind carries
A veces canto en el árbol Sometimes I sing in the tree
Que se deshoja de pena That is stripped of sorrow
A veces bebo del fuego Sometimes I drink from the fire
Palabras de primavera words of spring
Mi sangre canta por dentro my blood sings inside
Como la lluvia por fuera Like the rain outside
La noche canta y convierte The night sings and turns
Sus pájaros en estrellas His birds in stars
Pero cuando canta el pueblo But when the people sing
Musicaliza mis venas Musicalize my veins
Yo nunca miro a la rosa I never look at the rose
Por su color de quimera Because of its chimera color
La miro porque ella tiene I look at her because she has
A sangre de los que sueñan To the blood of those who dream
Porque en sus gajos florecens Because in her segments of her bloom
Las manos del que la siembra The hands of the one who sows it
Si el canto no se levanta If the song does not rise
Como la hoguera del fuego Like the bonfire of fire
Si no libera las penas If she doesn't release the sorrows
De los que estan en la tierra Of those who are on earth
De nada sirve que suene It is useless to sound
La voz de la chacarera The voice of the farmer
Asi como canta el río just as the river sings
Cuando la noche lo ciega When the night blinds him
Y sin mirar su caminp And without looking at his path
Sigue su rumbo de piedra Follow your stone path
Yo le canto a los que vienen I sing to those who come
Caminando por la tierra walking the earth
Mi copla es azul y estrellas My copla is blue and stars
Y una guitarra encendida And a guitar on
En su corazón de pueblo In your heart of town
La vida sufre y agita Life suffers and shakes
Con el perfil de sus bombos With the profile of his bass drums
Las esperanzas marchitas the faded hopes
Po eso canto a las cosas That's why I sing to things
Que me va dando la vida that life is giving me
A los changuitos de barro To the little mud monkeys
Hondeando lunas perdidas Slinging lost moons
Al tallo con sus espinas To the stem with its thorns
Y al hombre con sus heridasAnd the man with his wounds
