Ruben Blades - Pablo Pueblo(original) |
Regresa un hombre en silencio |
De su trabajo cansado |
Su paso no lleva prisa |
Su sombra nunca lo alcanza |
Lo espera el barrio de siempre |
Con el farol en la esquina |
Con la basura allá en frente |
Y el ruido de la cantina |
Pablo Pueblo |
Llega hasta el zaguán oscuro |
Y vuelve a ver las paredes |
Con las viejas papeletas |
Que prometían futuros |
En lides politiqueras |
Y en su cara se dibuja |
La decepción de la espera |
Pablo Pueblo |
Hijo del grito y la calle |
De la miseria y del hambre |
Del callejón y la pena |
Pablo Pueblo |
Su alimento es la esperanza |
Su paso no lleva prisa |
Su sombra nunca lo alcanza |
Llega al patio |
Pensativo y cabizbajo |
Con su silencio del pobre |
Con los gritos por abajo |
La ropa, allá, en los balcones |
El viento la va secando |
Se escucha un trueno en el cielo |
Tiempo de lluvia avisando |
Entra al cuarto |
Y se queda mirando |
A su mujer y a los niños |
Y se pregunta: «¿hasta cuando?» |
Toma sus sueños raídos |
Los parcha con esperanzas |
Hace del hambre una almohada |
Y se acuesta triste de alma |
Pablo Pueblo |
Hijo del grito y la calle |
De la miseria y del hambre |
Del callejón y la pena |
Pablo Pueblo |
Su alimento es la esperanza |
Su paso no lleva prisa |
Su sombra nunca lo alcanza |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Trabajó hasta jubilarse |
Y nunca sobraron chavos |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Votando en las elecciones |
Pa' después comerse un clavo |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Pablo con el silencio del pobre |
Con los gritos por abajo |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
¡Eeeh! |
¡Eeah! |
¡Echa pa' 'lante, Pablito! |
Y a la vida mete mano |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
A un crucifijo rezando |
El cambio esperando en Dios |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Mira a su mujer y a los nenes |
Y se pregunta: «¿hasta cuando?» |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Llega a su barrio de siempre |
Cansa’o de la factoría |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Buscando suerte en caballos |
Y comprando lotería |
Pablo pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Gastándose un dinerito en domino |
Y tomándose un par de tragos |
Pablo pueblo, Pablo hermano |
Hijo del grito y la calle |
De la pena y el quebranto |
Pablo pueblo, Pablo hermano |
¡Ay, Pablo Pueblo! |
¡Ay, Pablo hermano! |
(translation) |
A silent man returns |
Of your tired work |
His step is not in a hurry |
His shadow of him never reaches him |
The usual neighborhood awaits |
With the lantern in the corner |
With the garbage there in front |
And the noise of the canteen |
Paul Town |
Reaches the dark hall |
And see the walls again |
With the old ballots |
that promised future |
In political disputes |
And on his face he draws |
The disappointment of waiting |
Paul Town |
Son of the scream and the street |
Of misery and hunger |
From the alley and the sorrow |
Paul Town |
His food is hope |
His step is not in a hurry |
His shadow of him never reaches him |
comes to the yard |
Thoughtful and downcast |
With his silence of the poor |
With the screams below |
The clothes, there, on the balconies |
The wind is drying it |
Thunder is heard in the sky |
rainy weather warning |
enter the room |
and he stares |
To his wife of him and the children |
And he wonders: “until when?” |
Take their shabby dreams |
He patches them with hope |
Makes hunger a pillow |
And he goes to bed with a sad soul |
Paul Town |
Son of the scream and the street |
Of misery and hunger |
From the alley and the sorrow |
Paul Town |
His food is hope |
His step is not in a hurry |
His shadow of him never reaches him |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
He worked until he retired |
And there were never enough kids |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
Voting in the elections |
Pa 'after eating a nail |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
Paul with the silence of the poor |
With the screams below |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
Hey! |
Hey! |
Go forward, Pablito! |
And to life he puts his hand |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
To a crucifix praying |
The change waiting on God |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
Look at his wife of him and the kids |
And he wonders: “until when?” |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
He comes to his usual neighborhood |
Tired of the factory |
Pablo Pueblo, Pablo brother |
Looking for luck on horses |
and buying lottery |
Pablo town, Pablo brother |
Spending a little money on dominoes |
And having a couple of drinks |
Pablo town, Pablo brother |
Son of the scream and the street |
Of grief and loss |
Pablo town, Pablo brother |
Oh Pablo Pueblo! |
Oh Paul brother! |
