Paroles et traduction Heavy Nopal - Balada del Asalariado

Balada del Asalariado

Me asome a la ventana
Y vi venir al cartero

Me entretuve pensando
En una carta de amor.

Mas no, no.no...

Eran la cuenta del refri
Y del televisor

Me asome a la ventana
Y vi venir al Homero

Me entretuve pensando
En que venia a saludar

Mas no, no, no,

Eran 6 meses de renta
Que tenia que pagar

Me asome a mis adentros
Solo vi viejos cuentos,

Y una manera insolita
De sobrevivir

Mire hacia todos lados
Dije: dios que ha pasado?

Nada muchacho
Solo eres un asalariado

Por la puerta entraron
Mi mujer y mis hijos

Preparo la alegria
Que nos va a acariciar

Mas no, no, no

La despensa y la escuela
Se tienen que pagar, pagar
Pagar, pagar sin descansar

Pagar tus pasos,
Hasta tus sueños...
Pagar tu tiempo
Y tu respirar
Pagar la vida con alto costo
Y una moneda sin libertad
Suben las cosas
Menos mi sueldo
Que es lo que se espera
De este lugar?

No, no, no,

Me fui para la iglesia
A buscar un milagro

Rezandole a un retrato
Quize ver la cuestion

Mas no, no, no

Lo que vi
Fue al diablo de la devaluacion

Me asome a mis adentros
Solo vi viejos cuentos,

Y una manera insolita
De sobrevivir

Mire hacia todos lados
Dije: dios que ha pasado?

Nada muchacho
Solo eres un asalariado

Me asome a la ventana
Y vi venir a tu hermana

Me asome a la ventana

Y vi venir a tu hermana

Ballad of the Salaried Man

I looked out the window
And saw the mailman coming

I thought to myself
A love letter perhaps?

But no, no, no...

It was the bill for the refrigerator
And the television

I looked out the window
And saw Homer coming

I thought to myself
He's come to say hello

But no, no, no,

It was 6 months' rent
That I had to pay

I looked into my soul
I saw only old stories,

And an unusual way
To survive

I looked around
I said: what has happened?

Nothing, my dear
You're just a salaried man

Through the door came
My wife and my children

I'll make the joy
That we'll share

But no, no, no

The pantry and the school
They have to be paid, paid, paid, paid
Paid without rest

Pay for your every breath,
Until your very dreams,
Pay for your time
And your every breath
Pay for your life with great cost
And a currency that's not free
Prices go up
But not my salary
What can we expect
From this place?

No, no, no,

I went to the church
To find a miracle

Praying to a portrait
I tried to see the answer

But no, no, no

What I saw
Was the devil of devaluation

I looked into my soul
I saw only old stories,

And an unusual way
To survive

I looked around
I said: what has happened?

Nothing, my dear
You're just a salaried man

I looked out the window
And saw your sister coming

I looked out the window

And saw your sister coming
