17 Años - Armando Palomas перевод на английский

17 Años

Con su baby doll forrado en luna,
Su cabello húmedo de sueños,
Casi como una niña en su cuna,
Duerme con alcohol y los excesos.
Sueña con que alguna madrugada
Sopla un viento beso en la mejilla,
Sin que huela a tanta marihuana,
Ni que apriete fuerte las canillas,
Despertar sobre una vomitada,
De tacos de Juan el de la esquina,
Limpia con un trapo el piso sucio,
Revoltura de alcohol y comida.

17 años solamente,
Y ya es una experta en el dolor,
Y quisiera ser luna menguante,
Que alguna luz le cambie el dolor.

Piensa que la próxima semana,
Cambiaran las cosas y los pesos,
La esperanza al último se muere,
Pues la mata la falta de besos,
Lagrimas de azufre en la mañana,
Es todo lo que ha desayunado,
Mientras llena con su aliento la ventana
Y busca un orgasmo en un mercado.

17 años solamente,
Y ya es una experta en el dolor,
Y quisiera ser luna menguante,
Que alguna luz le cambie el color,
Que alguna luz regrese el amor,
Que alguna luz le calme el ardor.

17 Years Old

With his baby doll lined in moon,
His wet hair of dreams,
Almost like a girl in her cradle,
He sleeps with alcohol and excesses.
He dreams that some dawn
A kiss wind blows on his cheek,
Without smelling so much marijuana,
Nor that he squeezes his shins so hard,
To wake up on a vomit,
Of tacos from Juan's on the corner,
He cleans the dirty floor with a rag,
A jumble of alcohol and food.

He's only 17 years old,
And he's already an expert in pain,
And he would like to be a waning moon,
That some light would change his pain.

He thinks that next week,
Things will change and weights,
Hope dies last,
As it kills the lack of kisses,
Tears of sulfur in the morning,
It's all he had for breakfast,
As he fills the window with his breath
And looks for an orgasm in a market.

He's only 17 years old,
And he's already an expert in pain,
And he would like to be a waning moon,
That some light would change his color,
That some light would bring back love,
That some light would calm his ardor.
