Paroles et traduction Aldo Trujillo - El Retrato

El Retrato

Que suene bonito, plebes
Pisteéle mi compa Tuti

Pa que publican si me conocían
Tanto los medios, gobierno y milicia
Hoy no se acuerdan que convivían
Tanto conmigo y con mi familia

Ah-ay, un tragón acá del 70
Gracias, gracias

Si me cayeron y no lo niego
Traigo cachucha por si me vieron
Es de mi sangre, es de sombrero
Pero en mi tierra yo nada debo

Ese retrato esta donde quieren
Pero estoy lejos yo de las redes
Pero los dedos la reaventaron
No se les hizo pues me avisaron

Que llore bonito ese acordeón padre santo, mi compa Choco

Sí, la vi cerca cuando llegaron
Yo ya iba de salida pa'l rancho
También mi gente salió al bravazo
Carros blindados y armas hallaron

Yo no soy santo ni me la recargo
Si eso encontraron es porque cargo
Gente conmigo asegurando
Si pasa algo yo me hago cargo

Al que querían no lo encontraron
Pero hay les dejo este retrato
Sé que no lo verán con agrado
Porque en su vicio se hizo un fracaso

Eh-eh-hey, animo mi viejo
Sí, señor

The Portrait

Let it sound beautiful, folks
My compa Tuti, play it

Why are they publicizing it if they knew me
The media, government and the military
Today they don't remember that they used to hang out with
Me and my family

Ah-ay, a big shot from 70
Thank you, thank you

If they caught me, I won't deny it
I wear a cap, in case you saw me
It's in my blood, it's a hat wearer
But in my land, I owe nothing

That portrait is wherever they want
But I'm far away from the networks
But their fingers brought it back to life
They didn't get away with it, because they alerted me

Make that accordion cry beautifully, holy father, my compa Choco

Yes, I saw it close by when they arrived
I was already leaving for the ranch
My people also came out with a vengeance
They found armored cars and weapons

I'm not a saint, nor do I overdo it
If that's what they found, it's because I'm carrying
People with me, making sure
If anything happens, I'll take care of it

They didn't find the one they wanted
But there I leave you this portrait
I know they won't like it
Because their addiction turned into a failure

Eh-eh-hey, cheer up, my old man
Yes, sir
