Canción del Extranjero (original)Canción del Extranjero (translation)
Es cierto, sé que todos tus amantes It's true, I know all your lovers
Fueron jugadores pretendiendo haber dejado el juego They were players pretending to have left the game
Conozco a esos hombres y no es fácil I know those men and it's not easy
Coger la mano de alguien que quiere alcanzar el cielo Hold the hand of someone who wants to reach the sky
Alguien que quiere alcanzar el cielo someone who wants to reach the sky
Y al recoger el comodín que se olvidó And when picking up the joker he forgot
Descubres que no te ha dejado mucho más que nada You discover that he has not left you much more than anything
Él como cualquier jugador se retiró He like any player retired
Cansado de esperar por una carta aún más alta Tired of waiting for an even higher card
Como San José buscando un pesebre Like Saint Joseph looking for a manger
Como San José buscando un pesebre Like Saint Joseph looking for a manger
Y un día con serenidad te dice que And one day with serenity he tells you that
Su voluntad se debilitó con tu amor y tu cobijo His will was weakened by your love and your shelter
Sacará de su cartera un viejo horario de trenes He'll take an old train schedule out of his wallet
Y dirá: «te dije al llegar que era un extranjero And he will say: "I told you when I arrived that he was a foreigner
Te dije al llegar que era un extranjero.» I told you on arrival that he was a foreigner."
Pero ahora ves que hay alguien más que esconde But now you see there's someone else hiding
Sueños y demás como si fueran la carga de otro Dreams and others as if they were someone else's burden
Ya has visto a ese hombre antes repartiendo cartas You've seen that man before dealing cards
Con su brazo de oro que ahora está oxidado With his golden arm from him that is now rusty
Y te ofrece juego a cambio de cobijo And he offers you game in exchange for shelter
Y canciones a cambio de cobijo And songs in exchange for shelter
Y tú odias ver a otro extranjero como aquel primero And you hate to see another foreigner like that first
Haciéndote creer que ha dejado el juego Making you believe that he has left the game
Y mientras él oculta un as adviertes And while he hides an ace you notice
Un camino serpenteando como humo entre la nieve A road winding like smoke through the snow
Y de pronto sientes que envejeces And suddenly you feel like you're getting old
Le dices que puede pasar, pero oyes algo You tell him that he can come in, but you hear something
Y al girarte ves la puerta abierta y nadie en ella And when you turn you see the door open and nobody in it
Está junto a la ventana y no tienes nada que temer It's by the window and you have nothing to fear
Eres tú, mi amor, tú eres la extranjera It's you, my love, you are the foreigner
Tú mi amor, la única extranjera You my love, the only foreigner
Quise esperar, sabía que te encontraría en este tren I wanted to wait, I knew I'd find you on this train
Ya es hora de ir cogiendo otro It's time to go get another
Entiende por favor que nunca tuve un plan Please understand I never had a plan
Para llegar a este sitio o a cualquier otro To get to this site or any other
Y cuando te habla así no sabes que pretende And when he talks to you like that you don't know what he means
Mañana podemos quedar bajo el puente Tomorrow we can stay under the bridge
O junto al mar que se extiende hacia el infinito Or by the sea that stretches into infinity
Y sube al coche-cama dejando el andén vacío And get into the sleeping car leaving the platform empty
Y entiendes que él nunca fue sincero And you understand that he was never sincere
Que él no era aquel extranjero That he was not that foreigner
Y dices: «vale, bajo el puente es perfecto.» And you say, "ok, under the bridge is perfect."
Y al recoger el comodín que se olvidó And when picking up the joker he forgot
Descubres que no te ha dejado mucho más que nada You discover that he has not left you much more than anything
Él como cualquier jugador se retiró He like any player retired
Cansado de esperar por una carta aún más alta Tired of waiting for an even higher card
Como San José buscando un pesebre Like Saint Joseph looking for a manger
Como San José buscando un pesebre Like Saint Joseph looking for a manger
Y un día con serenidad te dice que And one day with serenity he tells you that
Su voluntad se debilitó con tu amor y tu cobijo His will was weakened by your love and your shelter
Sacará de su cartera un viejo horario de trenes He'll take an old train schedule out of his wallet
Y dirá: «te dije al llegar que era un extranjero And he will say: "I told you when I arrived that he was a foreigner
Te dije al llegar que era un extranjero I told you when I arrived that he was a foreigner
Te dije al llegar que era un extranjero I told you when I arrived that he was a foreigner
Te dije al llegar que era un extranjero I told you when I arrived that he was a foreigner
(Con todos mis respetos señor Cohen)(With all due respect Mr. Cohen)
