Paroles et traduction José Luis Perales - El Torerillo

El Torerillo

Deja tu pueblo y olvídate,
Mira que llegó la noche.
Toma el camino y aléjate
Con tu espada y tu capote.
Pronto la gente comentará
Al despertar la mañana,
Unos dirán se marchó del hogar
Otros dirán se escapó.
Comentarán tu razón de marchar
Bajo la luz de un farol.

Torero, capote, sombrero y olé
Y pierde la razón, mira su balcón,
Sola se quedó la calle.
Y cruza sin mirar, silba una canción
Y deja su pueblo atrás.

Pelo marrón, cazadora azul
Y quimeras a la espalda.
Traje de luces en oro y gris
Y en sus ojos esperanza.
Cielo de estrellas, ombligo al sol
Y un corazón que se escapa
Y el maletilla será matador
Dice la gente que pasa.
Y cada noche la misma canción,
Vuelve su sueño a escuchar.

Torero, capote, sombrero y olé
Y pierde la razón, baila bajo el sol
Pronto bailará en la arena.
Y en aquel balcón que dejó al partir
Pronto nacerá una flor.

Torero, capote, sombrero y olé

The Bullfighter

Leave your town and forget it,
See that the night has come.
Take the road and go away
With your sword and your capote.
Soon the people will comment
When the morning awakens,
Some will say that he left home
Others will say that he escaped.
They will discuss your reason for leaving
Beneath the light of a street lamp.

Bullfighter, capote, hat and olé
And he loses his mind, looks at her balcony,
The street is left alone.
And he crosses without looking, whistles a song
And leaves his town behind.

Brown hair, blue jacket
And daydreams on his back.
Suit of lights in gold and gray
And in his eyes, hope.
Sky of stars, the sun's belly button
And a heart that runs away
And the novice will become a matador
Say the people who pass by.
And every night the same song,
His dream returns to listen.

Bullfighter, capote, hat and olé
And he loses his mind, dances under the sun
Soon he will dance in the arena.
And on that balcony he left when he left
Soon a flower will be born.

Bullfighter, capote, hat and olé
