Translation of the song lyrics A una dama - Miguel Bose

A una dama (original)

Sentado en un rincón pagó la entrada
DE una noria que le sube
Le da vueltas y le baja
Y cuando baja está otra vez sentado
Sobre un hilo que se escapa
De una aguja mal clavada
Ay mi amor, ay no sé…
Qué pena equivocarme de paisaje
De ay en ay… Ay, su voz
Se apaga en fondo un ay…
El ilusionista entró en su vida…
El ilusionista entró en su vida
Metió su risa en la chistera
Y la hizo desaparecer
Hundiéndose entre suspiro y suspiro
De esta vida se dio el piro
PAra nunca más volver…
Ay, que este truco no era así
Que de su pulso no sale ni un tic-tac
Y aunque contó hasta tres
No consiguió despertar
Ilusionista charlatán
Ilusionando y nada más…
Ay mi amor, ay no sé…
Qué pena dar la espalda a este paisaje
De ay en ay… Ay, su voz
Sin vida por un ay
El ilusionista entró en su vida…
El ilusionista, el ilusionista…
El ilusionista… robó su vida…

A una dama (translation)

Sitting in a corner he paid the entrance
OF a Ferris wheel that goes up
He spins it around and lowers it
And when he comes down he's sitting again
On a slipping thread
From a badly stuck needle
Oh my love, oh I don't know...
What a pity to make a mistake of landscape
From woe to woe… woe, his voice
It turns off in the background, ay…
The illusionist entered his life from him…
The illusionist entered his life
He put his laugh in the hat
And he made her disappear
Sinking between sigh and sigh
From this life the pyro was given
To never come back...
Oh, this trick was not like that
That his pulse does not leave a tick-tock
And though he counted to three
he couldn't wake up
charlatan illusionist
Exciting and nothing more...
Oh my love, oh I don't know...
What a shame to turn your back on this landscape
From woe to woe… woe, his voice
Lifeless for a woe
The illusionist entered his life from him…
The illusionist, the illusionist...
The illusionist...stole his life from him...
