Paroles et traduction Francisco Canaro - Hay Que Aclarar

Hay Que Aclarar

Cómo están los tiempos
Quien no corre, vuela,
Y esto pasa en Francia
En Japón o en China

Porque hoy son los "puntos"
Armas de dos filos,
Y encontrás los vivos
En cualquier esquina...

Y como es mejor
Prevenir que curar,
Uno debe buscar
Para sí, la aliviada

Procurá y hacé
Como yo, que aprendí,
A mirar debajo ′el agua
Una vez que me perdí

Hay que aclarar... hay que aclarar
Porque aclarando, la vas pasando.
Hay que aclarar... sin olvidar
Que habiendo bultos queda menos claridad

Hay que aclarar... y procurar
Que a río revuelto, no vayas muerto,
Hay que aclarar... y confirmar
Que cuentas claras, bien conservan la amistad.

No te fiés de nadie
Hoy te dan el dulce,
Y mañana, en cambio
Un traguito amargo

No prestés la firma
Que uno luce el traje,
Y el que dio la fianza
Pagará el embargo...

Y si hablás de amor
Es mejor que callés,
Una vez me clavó
Con su flecha, Cupido

Y al salir después
Del Civil, comprendí,
Que el que aclara
Es más claro y por eso canto así.

Clearing Things Up

These are the times
Those who don't run, fly,
And this is happening in France
In Japan or in China

Because today there are "points"
Double-edged swords.
And you can find the scoundrels
On every corner...

And since it's better
To prevent than to cure,
You need to look out
For yourself, ease your mind

Think about it and do
As I did, I learned,
To look beneath the surface
Once I lost my way

You have to make things clear... you have to make things clear
Because if you make things clear, you'll get by.
You have to make things clear... and don't forget
Less is more when it comes to detail

You have to make things clear... and make it your aim
That when the waters get rough, you don't lose your head,
You have to make things clear... and make sure
Open books make for lasting friendships.

Don't trust anyone
They'll give you sugar today,
And tomorrow, instead
A bitter drink

Don't sign anything
Who looks good in a suit,
And the one who gave the guarantee
Will pay the price...

And if you talk about love
It's better to remain silent,
Cupid once shot me
With his arrow.

And leaving after
The ceremony, I understood,
That someone
Who makes things clear is clearer and this is why I sing.
