Paroles et traduction Pedro Aznar - Alcira y la Torre

Alcira y la Torre

Alcira, tomando ginebra de frente a la plaza San Martín
Observa cómo se hunde con cada trago cada adoquín
Alcira, camino al hospicio y en pleno asfalto se hizo un jardín
¿En qué paraíso distante, Alcira, me esperas venir?
¿En qué paraíso distante, Alcira, me esperas venir?

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)

Alcira, la luna estira rezando en la iglesia de San Jamás
Si el mundo es una mentira, solo ella confía en el más allá
Que hay otra naturaleza que va a ocupar el lugar del fin
¿En qué paraíso distante, Alcira, la esperas venir?
¿En qué paraíso distante, Alcira, la esperas venir?

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)

Alcira cerró el futuro y entró en lo oscuro de aquel ciclón
Donde otros ven solo alegría, ella intuía revolución
El río quebrando el dique, tragándose la ciudad por fin
¿En qué paraíso distante, Alcira, lo esperas venir?
¿En qué paraíso distante, Alcira, lo esperas venir?

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)

Alcira and the Tower

Alcira, drinking gin in the San Martín square
Observing how each cobblestone sinks with each sip
Alcira, on the way to the hospice and in the middle of the asphalt a garden has grown
In what distant paradise, Alcira, are you waiting for me to come?
In what distant paradise, Alcira, are you waiting for me to come?

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)

Alcira, the moon prays in the church of San Jamás
If the world is a lie, only she trusts in the afterlife
That there is another nature that will take the place of the end
In what distant paradise, Alcira, are you waiting for it to come?
In what distant paradise, Alcira, are you waiting for it to come?

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)

Alcira closed off the future and entered the darkness of that cyclone
Where others only see joy, she sensed revolution
The river breaking the dam, finally swallowing the city
In what distant paradise, Alcira, are you waiting for it to come?
In what distant paradise, Alcira, are you waiting for it to come?

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)

Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
Alcira, oh (Alcira, oh)
Alcira, oh-oh (Alcira, oh-oh)
