Текст и перевод песни Joan Manuel Serrat - El Titiritero

El Titiritero

De aldea en aldea
El viento lo lleva siguiendo el sendero
Su patria es el mundo
Como un vagabundo, va el titiritero

Viene de muy lejos
Cruzando los viejos
Caminos de piedra
Es de aquella raza
Que de plaza en plaza
Nos canta su pena

¡Allez hop, titiritero, allez hop!
De feria en feria
Siempre risueño
Canta sus sueños y sus miserias

Vacía su alforja
De sueños que forja en su andar tan largo
Nos baja una estrella
Que borra la huella de un recuerdo amargo

Canta su romanza
Al son de una danza
Híbrida y extraña
Para que el aldeano
Le llene la mano con lo poco que haya

¡Allez hop, titiritero, allez hop!
De feria en feria
Siempre risueño
Canta sus sueños y sus miserias

Y al caer la noche
En el viejo coche guardará los chismes
Y tal como vino
Sigue su camino solitario y triste

Y quizá mañana
Por esa ventana
Que muestra el sendero
Nos llegue su queja
Mientras que se aleja
El titiritero

The Puppeteer

From village to village
The wind carries him along the path
His homeland is the world
Like a vagabond, goes the puppeteer

He comes from far away
Crossing the old
Stone paths
He is of that race
That from square to square
Sings us his sorrow

Allez hop, puppeteer, allez hop!
From fair to fair
Always smiling
He sings his dreams and his miseries

He empties his satchel
Of dreams that he forges in his long journey
He brings us a star
That erases the traces of a bitter memory

He sings his ballad
To the sound of a dance
Hybrid and strange
So that the villager
Will fill his hand with whatever little he has

Allez hop, puppeteer, allez hop!
From fair to fair
Always smiling
He sings his dreams and his miseries

And as night falls
In the old carriage he will store the gadgets
And just as he came
He continues his lonely and sad journey

And perhaps tomorrow
Through that window
That shows the path
His complaint will reach us
As he walks away
The puppeteer
