No
me
hables
en
princesa,
que
somos
reos,
Don't
speak
to
me
like
a
princess,
we're
both
convicts,
Los
dos
del
mismo
origen,
barro
y
convoy.
Both
from
the
same
origin,
mud
and
a
convoy.
Tu
gesto
de
soberbia
te
queda
feo
Your
arrogant
expression
looks
ugly
on
you
Que
lo
de
ayer
no
es
grupo,
grupo
es
lo
de
hoy.
Because
yesterday's
group
is
not
today's
group.
Ayer
fue
cosa
limpia,
sueño
y
laburo,
Yesterday
was
a
clean
thing,
dream
and
work,
Pelearse
por
la
toalla,
plato
y
fogon,
Fighting
over
the
towel,
plate
and
stove,
Ayer
con
su
simpleza
fue
bronce
puro,
Yesterday
with
its
simplicity
was
pure
bronze,
Vos
no
quisiste
verlo,
peor
para
vos.
You
didn't
want
to
see
it,
so
much
the
worse
for
you.
No
soy
el
sonso
que
hace
el
Quijote,
I'm
not
the
fool
who
plays
Don
Quixote,
Ni
tengo
pasta
de
redentor.
Nor
do
I
have
the
makings
of
a
redeemer.
Ni
me
ha
pasado
por
el
marote
Nor
has
it
ever
crossed
my
mind
Que
me
de
calce
tu
situación.
That
your
situation
would
fit
me.
Esta
monserga
que
te
sacudo,
This
scolding
that
I'm
giving
you,
La
justifica
tu
proceder,
Your
behavior
justifies
it,
Yo
no
quería
más
que
el
saludo
All
I
wanted
was
a
greeting
De
aquella
pibe
que
fuiste
ayer.
From
that
girl
that
you
used
to
be
yesterday.
Si
hubieras
puesto
cara
de
avergonzada,
If
you
had
been
ashamed,
Cuando
me
relojeaste,
me
hacia
el
gil.
When
you
saw
me,
I
would
have
played
the
fool.
Pero
el
puñal
soberbio
de
tu
mirada
But
the
arrogant
dagger
of
your
gaze
Me
hirió
donde
más
hondo
se
puede
herir.
Wounded
me
where
it
hurts
the
most.
Andate
y
si
el
destino
nos
utiliza
Go
away
and
if
fate
uses
us
Para
un
apuntamento
como
el
de
hoy,
For
a
meeting
like
today's,
Quemame
con
la
chispa
de
una
sonrisa
Burn
me
with
the
spark
of
a
smile
Pero
segui
de
largo
como
hago
yo.
But
continue
on
your
way
as
I
do.
