Paroles et traduction Juan D'Arienzo - Rie Payaso

Rie Payaso

El payaso con sus muecas
Y su risa exagerada,
Nos invita, camaradas,
A gozar del carnaval;
No notáis en esa risa
Una mueca disfrazada,
Que su cara almidonada,
Nos oculta una verdad.
Ven payaso, buen amigo,
Compañero de tristezas,
Ven y siéntate a mi mesa
Si te quieres embriagar;
Que si tu tienes tus penas
Yo también tengo las mías
Y el champán hace olvidar.
Ríe, tu risa me contagia
Con la divina magia
De tu gracia sin par.
Bebamos mucho, bebamos porque quiero,
Con todo este dinero
Hacer mi carnaval.
Lloras, payaso buen amigo.
No llores que hay testigos
Que ignoran tu pesar;
Seca tu llanto y ríe con alborozo,
A ver, pronto, ¡che mozo,
Sirvanos más champán!
Lloras, payaso buen amigo.
No llores que hay testigos
Que ignoran tu pesar;
Seca tu llanto y ríe con alborozo,
A ver, pronto, ¡che mozo,
Sirvanos más champán!

Laughing Clown

The clown with his grimaces
And his exaggerated laughter,
Invites us, comrades,
To enjoy the carnival;
Don't you notice in that laughter
A disguised grimace,
That his starched face,
Hides a truth from us.
Come clown, good friend,
Companion of sadness,
Come and sit at my table
If you want to get drunk;
That if you have your sorrows
I also have mine
And champagne makes you forget.
Laugh, your laughter infects me
With the divine magic
Of your unparalleled grace.
Let's drink a lot, let's drink because I want to,
With all this money
To make my carnival.
You cry, good clown friend.
Don't cry, there are witnesses
Who ignore your sorrow;
Dry your tears and laugh with joy,
Come on, quick, hey waiter,
Serve us more champagne!
You cry, good clown friend.
Don't cry, there are witnesses
Who ignore your sorrow;
Dry your tears and laugh with joy,
Come on, quick, hey waiter,
Serve us more champagne!
