El Niño Yuntero(original) |
Carne de yugo ha nacido |
más humillado que bello |
con el cuello perseguido |
por el yugo para el cuello. |
Empieza a vivir y empieza |
a morir de punta a punta |
levantando la corteza |
de su madre con la yunta. |
Contar sus años no sabe |
y ya sabe que el sudor |
es una corona grave |
de sal para el labrador. |
Me duele este niño hambriento |
como una grandiosa espina |
y su vivir ceniciento |
revuelve mi alma de encina. |
Contar sus años no sabe |
y ya sabe que el sudor |
es una corona grave |
de sal para el labrador. |
Quién salvará a este chiquillo |
menor que un grano de avena, |
de dónde saldrá el martillo |
verdugo de esta cadena. |
Que salga del corazón |
de los hombres jornaleros |
que antes de ser hombres son |
y han sido niños yunteros. |
(translation) |
yoke meat is born |
more humiliated than beautiful |
with the neck chased |
by the yoke for the neck. |
Start living and start |
to die from end to end |
lifting the bark |
of his mother of him with the team. |
Count the years of he does not know |
and he already knows that the sweat |
it is a serious crown |
of salt for the farmer. |
I hurt this hungry child |
like a great thorn |
and his live ashen |
stir my oak soul. |
Count your years you don't know |
and you know that the sweat |
it is a serious crown |
of salt for the farmer. |
Who will save this little boy |
smaller than a grain of oats, |
where will the hammer come from |
executioner of this chain. |
come out of the heart |
of the day laborers |
that before being men they are |
and they have been children yunteros. |
