Lyrics and translation Buena Fe - El Duende del Bache




El Duende del Bache
The Goblin of the Pothole
El duende del bache
The goblin of the pothole
Ha llegado a la asamblea
Has arrived at the assembly
Querra que lo acepten con lo que plantea
He will want them to accept what he's proposing
Históricos duendes ya no quieren aceptar
Historical goblins no longer want to accept
Subirlo a la junta de Duende celestial
Raising him to the board of the celestial Goblin
El huequito es un poema
The little hole is a poem
Que refleja luna llena
That reflects the full moon
Cuando se llena de lluvia
When it's filled with rain
Aunque algunos embusteros
Although some liars
Han culpado a un salidero
Have blamed a water leak
Y le llaman: oquedad sucia
And they call it: dirty cavity
Qué orfandad de bondad y sensibilidad
What an orphanage of kindness and sensitivity
Cuanta incultura en los incautos,
How much uncultured in the unwary,
Ignorar tan vital hecho espiritual
Ignoring such a vital spiritual fact
Por las egoistas llantas de sus autos
For the selfish tires of their cars
El duende del bache
The goblin of the pothole
Ha llegado a la asamblea
Has arrived at the assembly
Querra que lo acepten con lo que plantea
He will want them to accept what he's proposing
Históricos duendes ya no quieren aceptar
Historical goblins no longer want to accept
Subirlo a la junta de Duende celestial
Raising him to the board of the celestial Goblin
Cómputos tecnificados
Technified computations
Calculos optimizados
Optimized calculations
Aparatos muy profesionales
Very professional devices
A recónditos lugares
To recondite places
Llevan huecos estelares
They carry stellar hollows
Diseñados sobre los viales
Designed on the roads
Conclusión, qué emoción, dulce salvación
Conclusion, what emotion, sweet salvation
Gran mañana nos espera
A great morning awaits us
Duende futurista y de larga visión
Futuristic and farsighted Goblin
Cuando los vehiculos ya no tengan ruedas
When vehicles no longer have wheels
La asamblea se ha quedado pensativa
The assembly has been left thoughtful
El murmullo se generalizó
The murmur became generalized
Es que acaso suena descabellado
Is it that perhaps it sounds crazy
O es lo que hemos fomentado
Or is what we have fostered
Como nueva generación
As a new generation
Cuando todo parecia entrar en caos
When everything seemed to enter chaos
Oyose la cruda voz del duende del son
The raw voice of the son's goblin was heard
Extrangerizantemente sospechoso
Foreignly suspicious
Que se defienda
Let him defend himself
Al compas del rock and roll
To the beat of rock and roll
El duende del bache
The goblin of the pothole
Se va de la asamblea
Leaves the assembly
No ha sido aceptado con lo que plantea
He has not been accepted with what he proposes
Históricos duendes no quisieron aceptar
Historical goblins did not want to accept
Subirlo a la junta de duende celestial
Raising him to the board of the celestial goblin
Aunque triste y muy dolido
Although sad and very hurt
El duendecillo se ha ido
The little goblin has left
Con un poquito de esperanza
With a little bit of hope
Y es volver a los estrados
And it is to return to the platforms
Con esfuerzos redoblados
With redoubled efforts
Y algun ritmo de confianza
And some rhythm of confidence
Al final, natural, es proporcional
In the end, natural, it is proportional
Por mas roto, mas contento
The more broken, the happier
Nos espera llenos de hospitalidad
He awaits us full of hospitality
Con los baches bien abiertos
With the potholes wide open
