Esnesaltzailearena

Akordatzen naiz txikitan
Oraindik lotan nintzela
Aita goizeko bostetan
Behiak jezten hasten zela
Ama ondoan zeukala
Amak laguntzen zuela
Etxez etxe aritzeko
Esne saltzaile bezala
Kuatrolatas zahar batean
Aita aurrean gidari
Ama atzean joaten zen
Esne marmiten zaindari
Amak ez zion, ordea,
Inoiz ekiten lanari
Muxutxo bat eman gabe
Bere seme bakoitzari
Etxez etxe tinbre joka
Portaletik portalera
Kaixo, egun on, zer moduz?
Kortesiazko galdera!
Irribarre bat eskainiz
Esnearekin batera
Eta beraiena galduta
Itzultzen ziren etxera
Lege berrien sartzeak
Belztu zien bekokia
Esne saltzaile langintza
Ez omen zen egokia
Tetrabrikak hartu zuen
Esne marmiten tokia
Eta pena da garai haiek
Akordatzen egotea!

Milkman's

I remember when I was little
Still sleeping
Dad at five in the morning
Starting to milk the cows
Mom beside him
Mom's helping
In order to go from door to door
As a milkman
In an old pickup truck
Dad driving in front
Mom in the back
Guard of the milk pots
Mom, however, never
Started working
Without giving a kiss
To each of her sons
Knocking on every door, ringing every bell
From portal to portal
Hello, good morning, how are you?
A question out of courtesy!
Offering a smile
Along with the milk
But lost their own
Returning home
New laws
Turned their beaks black
Milkman's work
No longer considered suitable
Tetra Briks took over
The place of the milk pots
What a pity to remember those times
