| El Viajero (original) | El Viajero (translation) |
|---|---|
| Yo quiero ser el viajero | I want to be the traveler |
| De mil caminos sin rumbo | Of a thousand paths aimlessly |
| Que pateando senderos | that kicking trails |
| Llego' a salirse del mundo. | I get to leave the world. |
| Aquel viajero estrenaba | that traveler premiered |
| Cada dia un horizonte, | Every day a horizon, |
| Cada atardecer el alma | Every evening the soul |
| Y una estrella cada noche. | And a star every night. |
| No llevaba ni mochila, | He didn't even have a backpack |
| Ni sombrero no basto’n, | Neither hat nor cane, |
| Su equipaje era su vida, | His baggage was his life, |
| Que unas veces era piedra | That once was stone |
| Y otras veces era flor. | And other times it was a flower. |
| No se paraba màs tiempo | He didn't stop longer |
| Que para hacer un amigo, | Than to make a friend, |
| Y para envidia del viento, | And to the envy of the wind, |
| Seguia estrenando caminos. | He kept breaking new ground. |
| Que no llevaba ni mochila, | That he didn't even have a backpack, |
| Ni sombrero ni basto’n, | Neither hat nor cane, |
| Su equipaje era su vida, | His baggage was his life, |
| Que unas veces era piedra | That once was stone |
| Y otras veces era flor. | And other times it was a flower. |
