Paroles et traduction Ana Belén & Victor Manuel - Boxea Con Tu Sombra

Boxea Con Tu Sombra

La luz de la esperanza fue agotando
Tenía en la mirada algo extraviado
Se cruza la memoria con el barrio,
Alguna esquina triste y un muchacho,
Que pareció no ver
Pero era él
Con doce años
Parado ante la puerta del gimnasio.

La luz de la esperanza fue menguando
Tenía en la pupila un brillo extraño
Quién dijo que tu estabas acabado
Quién dijo que te están moliendo a palos,
No puedo con los pies
Y él se me escurre como un gato
Pensabas caminando
Hacia el calvario

Box, box, box
Boxea con tu sombra
Salta a la comba duro al saco

Box, box, box
Si no me toca si me levanto
Si meto un gancho y queda colgado,

Box, box, box
Me como el mundo, pago atrasos
Quemo el barrio en cinco asaltos,
Me como el mundo, pago atrasos
Quemo el barrio en cinco asaltos

La luz de la esperanza es algo amargo
Lo intentas y el cerebro no hace caso
Que voces tan lejanas y qué brazos
Me pesan como pesan los ahogados.
Te cuentan hasta diez
No puede ser, no me han tocado
Camino al hospital,
Irás llorando

Box, box, box
Boxea con tu sombra
Salta a la comba duro al saco.

Box, box, box
Si no me toca si me levanto
Si meto un gancho y queda colgado.

Box, box, box
Me como el mundo, pago atrasos
Quemo el barrio en cinco asaltos,
Me como el mundo, pago atrasos
Quemo el barrio en cinco asaltos

Me como el mundo,
Pago atrasos
Quemo el barrio
En cinco asaltos.

Shadow Boxing

The light of hope was fading away
He had a lost look in his eyes
Memory crosses paths with the neighborhood
A sad corner and a young boy
Who seemed not to see
But it was him
12 years old
Standing at the entrance of the gym

The light of hope was waning
His pupil had a strange gleam
Who said you were finished
Who said you were being beaten to a pulp
I can't stand up
And he escapes me like a cat
You were thinking as you walked
About the Calvary

Box, box, box
Box with your shadow
Skip rope hard on the bag

Box, box, box
If I'm not touched, if I get up
If I throw a hook and he hangs

Box, box, box
I'll eat the world, pay off my debts
I'll burn the neighborhood down in five rounds
I'll eat the world, pay off my debts
I'll burn the neighborhood down in five rounds

The light of hope is somewhat bitter
You try and your brain doesn't listen
Voices so distant and what arms?
They weigh me down like they weigh those who drown
They count to ten
It can't be, they haven't hit me
On the way to the hospital
You'll go crying

Box, box, box
Box with your shadow
Skip rope hard on the bag.

Box, box, box
If I'm not touched, if I get up
If I throw a hook and he hangs.

Box, box, box
I'll eat the world, pay off my debts
I'll burn the neighborhood down in five rounds,
I'll eat the world, pay off my debts
I'll burn the neighborhood down in five rounds

I'll eat the world,
I'll pay off my debts
I'll burn the neighborhood
In five rounds.
