Lyrics of Campesina - Pablo Milanés

Campesina (original)

Naciste un dia cualquier, en algun lugar
Con un arbol y una nuve siempre estan
Y se conocen, y así confrontansu soledad
Siendo niñatu juguete yegó a ser
Tracender el horizonte y conocer
Tu adolecente, tu adolecencia nunca fue
Campesina ya tu vida
Llaman felicidad
Campesina ya tu vida
Llaman felicidad
Esa felicidad medida en tu ver
En tu andar
En ver tu arbol desflorido
Y bajo tu nube de andar
En ver tu arbol desflorido
Y bajo tu nube de andar
Tu corazon un dia desperto
Para muchos el espacio en que se ahogo
Te equivocaste
Para elegir bno tuviste voz
Entre lo que deseasrte y lo que fue
Entre el sol y lo noche en que no vez
Cinco mentiras
Tragiste al mundo a preguntar
Te enterraron comentando
Tu gran felicidad
Esa felicidad medida en tuver
En tu andar
Serca de tu arbol florido
Y bajo tu nube de andar
Serca de tu arbol florido
Y bajo tu nube de andar.

(translation)

You were born on any given day, somewhere
With a tree and a cloud they are always
And they meet, and thus confront their loneliness
As a child, your toy became
Transcend the horizon and meet
Your adolescent, your adolescence was never
Peasant and your life
they call happiness
Peasant and your life
they call happiness
That happiness measured in your seeing
in your walk
In seeing your deflowered tree
And under your walking cloud
In seeing your deflowered tree
And under your walking cloud
Your heart woke up one day
For many the space in which they drown
you were wrong
To choose b you had no voice
Between what you wanted and what was
Between the sun and the night you don't see
five lies
You brought the world to ask
They buried you commenting
your great happiness
That happiness measured in túr
in your walk
near your flowering tree
And under your walking cloud
near your flowering tree
And under your walking cloud.
