Paroles et traduction Kike Meneses - Mi Amigo El Borracho

Mi Amigo El Borracho

Me lo encontré en la cantina
Era un borracho muy triste
Tenia en la cara el dolor, de es que marca una espina clavada en el corazón

Se le notaba el pesar
Yo lo vi muy pensativo
Adivinaba el motivo por el que estaba a fijado, casi a punto de llorar

Sentado frente a la barra
Cantaba con su guitarra
De esas canciones que llegan, que te dan sed de cerveza, y te desgarran el alma

Y la gente lo escuchaba
Y el cantinero servía
Y entre cristales y copas, me percate que su ropa, era igualita a la mía

Y la gente lo escuchaba
Y el cantinero servía
Y entre cristales y copas, me percate que su ropa, era igualita a la mia

Y al verlo yo fijamente
Vi que tambien me veia
Pero todo era un reflejo, el borracho del espejo, su imagen era la mia.

My Intoxicated Comrade

I ran into him at the cantina
He was a dreary drunk
His countenance bore the agony, as though his heart bore a piercing thorn

He was evidently dejected
I perceived him to be very pensive
I could guess the cause for which he was fixated, almost on the verge of tears

Sitting at the bar
He sang with his guitar
One of those songs that reach you, that make you thirst for beer and that tear your soul apart

And the people listened to him
And the bartender poured
And amidst glasses and cups, I noticed that his attire was identical to mine

And the people listened to him
And the bartender poured
And amidst glasses and cups, I noticed that his attire was identical to mine

And observing him closely
I saw that he was also looking at me
But it was all a reflection, the drunkard in the mirror, his image was mine.
