Lyrics and translation Pablo Milanés - Bayamo Con Su Saco




Bayamo Con Su Saco
Bayamo With His Sack
Bayamo, eras solo un mendigo
Bayamo, you were just a beggar
Y ese rostro velado bello e insomne
And that veiled face, beautiful and sleepless
Sueño durmiendo en noches de vigilia
I dream of you sleeping in nights of vigil
Me persigue en el rastro del destino
You pursue me in the footsteps of destiny
Bayamo, mi ciudad perdida
Bayamo, my lost city
Vagamente olvidada en el camino
Vaguely forgotten on the path
Que me arropaba en nichos y fragancias
That wrapped me in niches and fragrances
Muertes y amor, nostalgia y desafío
Deaths and love, nostalgia and defiance
Bayamo con su saco
Bayamo with his sack
Bayamo con su saco
Bayamo with his sack
Hoy lleno de vacío
Today filled with emptiness
Bayamo, mendigo trashumante
Bayamo, wandering beggar
Regio, galán, mulato y caballero
Royal, gallant, mulatto and gentleman
Qué llanto me marcó cuando te veo
What a cry marked me when I saw you
Aún caminando erguido y desafiante
Still walking upright and defiant
Bayamo, cual duende sin cariño
Bayamo, like a goblin without love
Miedo y lástima volcándose en mi infancia
Fear and pity pouring into my childhood
Ni Salgari, ni Verne para el niño
Neither Salgari nor Verne for the child
Que te amó y te recuerda en la distancia
Who loved you and remembers you from afar
Bayamo con su saco
Bayamo with his sack
Bayamo con su saco
Bayamo with his sack
Hoy lleno de vacío
Today filled with emptiness
Bayamo, cual duende sin cariño
Bayamo, like a goblin without love
Miedo y lástima volcándose en mi infancia
Fear and pity pouring into my childhood
Ni Salgari, ni Verne para el niño
Neither Salgari nor Verne for the child
Que te amó y te recuerda en la distancia
Who loved you and remembers you from afar
Bayamo con su saco
Bayamo with his sack
Bayamo con su saco
Bayamo with his sack
Hoy lleno de vacío
Today filled with emptiness
