Paroles et traduction Nicasio Quintero - Mi Viejito

Mi Viejito

A ver quien pues sentado a la mirada perdida se queda viendo pa' bajo
Muy poco ve para arriba muy poco será que ya está cansado con tantos
Años de vida cuando se llega a mover muy despacito camina en esos
Ojos bonitos la tristeza predomina y no es que le falte nada
Solamente así es la vida quisiera tener poder para cambiarle la vida
Quitarle unos veinte o treinte y verlo otra vez
Contento caminado muy seguro así fuera
Contra el viento te quiero mucho padre parece que lo estoy viendo
Cuando en su momento estaba cuando en su paso andaba quien y va
Pensar que un dia la fuerza se le acabara pero se dice y se sabe que
Hasta el acero se vence como cambian las cosas contra el tiempo no sé
Puede lo aceptaré aunque me pese quisiera tener poder
Tener poder y quitarle unos veinte o treinta y verlo otra vez alegre
Y contento y ver lo caminando seguro así fuera contra el viento

My Old Man

Let's see who is sitting with a lost gaze staring at the ground
He looks up very little, very little could it be that he is already tired with so many
Years of life when he starts to move he walks very slowly in those
Sad eyes the sadness dominates and it's not that he needs anything
That's just the way life is I wish I had the power to change his life
Take away twenty or thirty and see him again
Happy walking with confidence even if it were
Against the wind I love you very much Dad it seems like I'm seeing you
When in his moment he was when in his step he walked who and will
Think that one day his strength will run out but it is said and it is known that
Even steel gives in as things change against time I don't know
I can accept it even if it weighs me down I wish I had power
To have power and take away twenty or thirty and see him again happy
And satisfied and see him walking confidently even if it were against the wind
