Paroles et traduction Javier Krahe - Kriptonita

Kriptonita

Yo que en un santiamén movía una montaña
Con un vigor que hoy a mi mismo me extraña,
Debo admitir, al fin, que algo me debilita,
Tal vez sea la edad, tal vez la kriptonita.
Volaba tal que así sobre los rascacielos,
Qué periodista audaz no compartió mis vuelos,
Tal vez sea la edad, tal vez la kriptonita,
Hoy vuelo en metro y ya ni el pito me levita.
Y veía a través de opacos sentimientos
Imágenes que os di en muy contados cuentos,
Tal vez sea la edad, tal vez la kriptonita,
Hoy sólo quiero ver mi serie favorita.
Sembraba por doquier el bien y a los villanos
Les daba tal pavor que les salían granos,
Tal vez sea la edad, tal vez la kriptonita,
Ante el lobo feroz hoy soy Caperucita.
Fue fácil para mi, con mis superpoderes,
Gozar del buen amor y muchas más mujeres,
Tal vez sea la edad, tal vez la kriptonita,
Hoy no tengo con quién, nadie me solicita.
Arriba, corazón, y a ver si contraatacas,
Si es cosa de "El Luthor", prueba con espinacas,
Si es cosa del reloj, hazle una cancioncita.
Tal vez sea la edad, tal vez la kriptonita.

Kryptonite

I, who could move a mountain in an instant,
With a vigor that today amazes even me,
Must admit, at last, that something weakens me,
Perhaps it is age, perhaps kryptonite.
I flew like this over skyscrapers,
What bold journalist did not share my flights,
Perhaps it is age, perhaps kryptonite,
Today I fly by subway and not even the whistle makes me levitate.
And I saw through opaque feelings
Images that I gave you in very few stories,
Perhaps it is age, perhaps kryptonite,
Today I just want to watch my favorite series.
I sowed good everywhere and to villains
I gave them such terror that they broke out in pimples,
Perhaps it is age, perhaps kryptonite,
Before the big bad wolf today I am Little Red Riding Hood.
It was easy for me, with my superpowers,
To enjoy good love and many more women,
Perhaps it is age, perhaps kryptonite,
Today I have no one with whom, no one asks for me.
Up, heart, and see if you fight back,
If it is a matter of "The Luthor", try spinach,
If it is a matter of the clock, make it a little song.
Perhaps it is age, perhaps kryptonite.
