Lyrics and translation Javier Rosas Y Su Artillería Pesada - El Viejo Sigue Aquí - En Vivo




El Viejo Sigue Aquí - En Vivo
The Old Man Is Still Here - Live
Debajo de una ramada
Under a canopy,
Aya en las montañas sombrea el señor
Up in the shady mountains, the Lord presides
Aunque rodeado de piedras
Though surrounded by rocks,
Desde aya ordena y se escucha su voz
From there he commands, and his voice is heard.
Llego y subio a la cima
He arrived and ascended to the summit,
Y ya de la cima nunca se bajo
And from the summit, he has descended, never again.
Porque desde las montañas
Because from the mountains,
El tiene sus mañas pa ser el patron
He has his ways, being the leader.
Es un hombre afortunado
He is a fortunate man,
Sus gustos se a dado pues sabe vivir
His tastes have been refined, he knows how to live.
Porque aunque deba cuidarse
Because although he must take care,
Ah sabido darse lujos y seguir
He has known how to give himself luxuries and carry on.
Baja pa las rancheradas
He goes down for the ranch parties,
Cuando le dan ganas y vuelve a subir
When he feels like it, and then he goes back up.
Ofrecen por su cabeza
They offer for his head,
Y por su cabeza el viejo sigue aqui
And for his head, the old man is still here.
Ya todo se sabe de el
Everything is known about him now,
Que es de el el cartel en eso hay razon
That he is the cartel, in that there is reason.
Dicen que lo andan buscando
They say they are looking for him,
Si no lo han ayado es la misma razon
If they haven't found him, it is for the same reason.
De los hombres mas buscados
Of the most wanted men,
Averlo tachado es mala educacion
To have crossed him off is bad manners.
Se ve que no lo conocen
It is clear that they do not know him,
Porque fino a voces es ese señor
Because that gentleman is finely spoken.
Sus años en el poder
His years in power
Te dan a saber que sabe mandar
Let you know that he knows how to command.
Conocio a todos los grandes
He knew all the greats,
Que en los tiempos de antes reinaron igual
Who reigned in the olden days.
Pero hoy son otros los tiempos
But today times are different,
Le dio tiempo al tiempo y el logro durar
He gave time to time and he managed to last.
Todavia es un ranchero
He is still a rancher;
Eso ni el dinero lo puede cambiar
Not even money can change that.
