Paroles et traduction Anibal Troilo - El Encopao

El Encopao

Me dicen "El Encopao"...
Los que no saben lo que me ha pasao
Y me ven hecho un cualquiera.
Que digan lo que digan
Que ya no me hacen mella!
Me llaman "El Encopao"...
Como si el que anda así pierde el honor!...
Y no piensan que el que mata
Su rabia entre copas
Tiene su razon.

Total que le importa a ella
Que viva como yo vivo!
Metido siempre en el boliche de esa esquina
Que ha dejao de ser tan linda
Por su olvido...
Total, que le importa a ella
Que viva como yo vivo!
Mareao de caña y de recuerdos, noche y dia,
Dia y noche por su vida
Que es mi amor.

Me dicen "El Encopao"...
Y no es mentira que voy mal rumbeao.
Todo por una morocha
Que me Marco una gueya
De penas y de sombras!
Me llaman "El Encopao"...
Pero conmigo naide y'a jugar;
Porque los hombres se encuentran,
Y entonces, cara a cara,
Hay que corajear...

The Drunk

They call me "The Drunk"...
Those who don't know what happened to me
And see me as a good-for-nothing.
Let them say what they want
It doesn't affect me anymore!
They call me "The Drunk"...
As if someone like me has lost all honor!...
And they don't think that the one who kills
Their anger with drinks
Has their reasons.

In the end, what does it matter to her?
That I live the way I do!
Always in that bar on the corner
That's stopped being so pretty
Because she's forgotten it...
In the end, what does it matter to her?
That I live the way I do!
Dizzy from liquor and memories, day and night
Day and night for her life
That is my love.

They call me "The Drunk"...
And it's true that I'm going down the wrong path.
All because of a brunette
Who played a cruel game on me
Of pain and shadows!
They call me "The Drunk"...
But nobody plays with me anymore;
Because real men meet up,
And then, face to face,
You have to show some courage...
