Paroles et traduction Francisco Canaro - No Hay Que Hacerse Mala Sangre

No Hay Que Hacerse Mala Sangre

Petronila
(Qué?)

No hay que hacerse mala sangre
Aunque el mundo se derrumbe
Aunque chumbe el paterío
Y el del alquiler no chumbe

Aunque vengan vendavales
Y con él el barrilete
Aunque el [...] apriete
Y nos tenga a mal traer

No hay que hacerse mala sangre
(Ya lo dijo Schopenhauer)
Salga pato o gallareta
(Como dijo Martin Fierro)

Y al mal tiempo buena jeta
Mientras haya que comer
(Lo demás son cuentos)

Que si un mal tiene remedio
Aflijirse se lo conviene
Y si remedio no tiene
No sé qué le vachaché.

Don't Let it Get You Down

Petronila
(What?)

Don't let it get you down
Even if the world falls apart
Even if the landlord comes a-knocking
And the rent is overdue

Even if the storms come raging
And the kite goes flying
Even if the [...] squeezes
And gives us a hard time

Don't let it get you down
(As Schopenhauer said)
Whether it's a duck or a moorhen
(As Martin Fierro said)

And put a smile on your face in the face of adversity
As long as there is food to eat
(The rest is just stories)

For if there is a solution to a problem
Worrying about it is helpful
And if there is no solution
I don't know what else to tell you.
