Lyrics and translation Desakato - Frio de Xineru

Frio de Xineru

Un día cualquiera fríu de xineru
La mesma rutina de tolos dís
Despierta tempranu y entama'l primeru
Alluma la lluna y el cielu ye gris

Alcuerda los años cuando yera un neñu
La vida fue dura, nun pudo elexir
Miróse les manes y vio que taba desfechu
Buscando en silenciu algamar un futuru pa mí

Y xugándose'l pelleyu parez que nunca tien fríu
Cuando quier tirar p'alantre nun lu aparten del caminu
Engarrándose col mundiu y contando les pisaes
Pa nunca perder el rumbu, un exemplu de coraxe
Un espeyu onde mirame

Y yá de mui xoven coló del so pueblu
Buscando un futuru pola gran ciudá
La hestoria de tantos que nunca escoyeron
Camudaron los sueños pola realidá

Asina medramos y nun escaecemos
Que gracies a ellos podemos decir
Que nunca tornen los tiempos d'esclavu sin dueñu
Que'l restu los dís que-yos queden seyan pa reir

Y xugándose'l pelleyu parez que nunca tien fríu
Cuando quier tirar p'alantre nun lu aparten del caminu
Engarrándose col mundiu y contando les pisaes
Pa nunca perder el rumbu, un exemplu de coraxe
Un espeyu onde mirame.

Cold January

One random day in cold January,
The same old routine of every day,
Waking up early to start my shift,
The moon is up and the sky is grey.

Thinking back to the years when I was a child,
Life was hard, no choice in the matter,
Looking at my hands, I see that I'm worn,
Searching silently for a future for my daughter.

And risking his life, he never seems cold,
When he wants to move forward, nothing can stop him,
Fighting with the world, counting his steps,
So he never loses his way, an example of courage,
A mirror in which I see myself.

And so young, he left his village,
Searching for a future in the big city,
The story of so many who never chose,
Who traded their dreams for reality.

That's how we grow up and never forget,
That thanks to them, we can say,
May the days of slavery without a master never return,
May the rest of their days be filled with laughter.

And risking his life, he never seems cold,
When he wants to move forward, nothing can stop him,
Fighting with the world and counting his steps,
So he never loses his way, an example of courage,
A mirror in which I see myself.
