Paroles et traduction Zambayonny - Satelites caidos

Satelites caidos

Ayer mi perro soñoó conmigo
Y no sabía cómo contarme
Iba y venía al lado mío
Desesperado queriendo salvarme.

Diez mil parientes insisten tanto
Que el chico acepta ir al piano
Se sienta y toca la marcha fúnebre
Jamás volvieron a molestarlo.

Aunque los satélites nos miren
Aunque sepan cómo, dónde y cuándo
Aunque los sistemas nos vigilen
No podrán saber por qué brindamos.

Son tantos años trabajando solos
Sin animarme a darte un beso
Se acaba el tiempo ¿Qué cable corto?
El que me mate, azul o rojo.

En la planilla de inasistencias
Como una burla se leen los nombres
De los alumnos de aquel nocturno
Que se llevaron quién sabe a dónde.

Aunque los satélites nos miren
Aunque sepan cómo, dónde y cuándo
Aunque los sistemas nos vigilen
No podrán saber por quién brindamos.

Cuando llamaron a mi amorcito
Para mentirle mi triste suerte
Ella llorando logró encontrarme
Para que la consuele de mi propia muerte.

Fallen Satellites

Yesterday my dog dreamed of me
And didn't know how to tell me
He came and went by my side
Desperate, wanting to save me.

Ten thousand relatives insist so much
That the boy agrees to go to the piano
He sits down and plays the funeral march
They never bothered him again.

Even though the satellites watch us
Even though they know how, where, and when
Even though the systems monitor us
They will not be able to know why we toast.

It's been so many years working alone
Without daring to give you a kiss
Time is running out. Which cable do I cut?
The one that kills me, blue or red.

On the form for absences
Like a mockery, the names are read
Of the students from that night school
Who were taken away, who knows where.

Even though the satellites watch us
Even though they know how, where, and when
Even though the systems monitor us
They will not be able to know who we toast to.

When they called for my love
To lie to her about my sad fate
She found me crying
So that she could console her about my own death.
