Текст и перевод песни Alejandro Balbis - Claroscuro

Claroscuro

El cantor en el tablado, se presenta ante la gente
Nacen de ese claroscuro sus cantares insolentes
Uno y otro maquillaje y la persona que hay detrás
A veces los mismos mares, la misma felicidad
Este falso contraste, no tiene mucha ciencia
Al cantar transforma en arte su impaciencia

El cantor sube al tablado, va a enfrentar a sus demonios
Por amor al carnaval o por zafar del matrimonio
O tal vez para curarse de la nostalgia invernal
Sin querer se vuelve parte del paisaje originial
Así es la suerte, del que canta y del que escucha
Diferente realidad, la misma lucha

Lights and Shadows

The singer upon the stage, presents himself to the crowd
From those lights and shadows are born his insolent songs
His makeup and the person behind it, one and the other
Sometimes the same seas, the same happiness
This false contrast, there is not much science to it
When he sings, he transforms his impatience into art

The singer steps onto the stage, he goes to face his demons
For the love of the carnival or to escape marriage
Or perhaps to cure himself of the winter nostalgia
Without wanting to, he becomes part of the original landscape
Such is the fate, of he who sings and of he who listens
Different reality, the same struggle
