Текст и перевод песни Julio Sosa feat. Orquesta de Leopoldo Federico - Levanta la Frente

Levanta la Frente

Levanta la frente. No escondas la cara.
Enjuga tus lágrimas, échate a reír.
No tengas vergüenza, a tu rostro aclara;
¿Por qué tanta pena?, ¿por qué tal sufrir?
Yo sé que tu falta será para el mundo
Escándalo, risa, placer y baldón;
Mas yo soy tu hermano, y al ser juez me fundo
Según los dictados que da el corazón.

No es falta la falta que dar luz a un niño:
La ley de dar frutos es ley de la flor...
No peca quien brinda la fe de un cariño,
Ni es crimen el darse confiada al amor.
Malvado es el hombre que infiere la ofensa;
Infame es el hombre que bebe y se va,
Y deja en la fuente, la flor y no piensa,
No piensa siquiera que un ser nacerá.

Acércate, hermana; no llores, no temas;
La ley de ser madre es ley natural;
Las madres son diosas con santas diademas,
Ya cumplan o violen la norma legal.
La madre casada, la madre soltera...
Son todas iguales: son una, no dos;
Lo nieguen las leyes, lo niegue quien quiera,
¡son todas iguales delante de Dios!

¡No llores, hermana!... Ya ves... te comprendo.
De nada te culpo, mi afecto te doy;
Mi casa, mis brazos, mis puños te ofrendo;
Del hijo que traes cual padre ya soy.
¡No llores, hermana!
Tendrás mis ahorros,
Tendrás todo aquello que aquí dentro ves...
Tu buena cuñada me dio dos cachorros;
Haz de cuenta haré, hermana, que ya tengo tres.

Lift Up Your Head

Lift up your head. Do not hide your face.
Wipe away your tears, laugh.
Do not be ashamed, clear your face;
Why so much pain, why such suffering?
I know that your mistake will be for the world
Scandal, laughter, pleasure and shame;
But I am your brother, and being a judge I am based
According to the dictates of the heart.

It's not wrong to give birth to a child:
The law of bearing fruit is the law of the flower...
He who gives the faith of a love does not sin,
Nor is it a crime to give oneself in confidence to love.
Evil is the man who infers offense;
Infamous is the man who drinks and leaves,
And leaves at the fountain, the flower and does not think,
He does not even think that a being will be born.

Come closer, sister; do not cry, do not fear;
The law of being a mother is a natural law;
Mothers are goddesses with holy diadems,
Whether they comply or violate the legal norm.
The married mother, the single mother...
They are all equal: they are one, not two;
Let the laws deny it, let whoever denies it,
they are all equal before God!

Don't cry, sister!... You see... I understand you.
I don't blame you for anything, I give you my affection;
My house, my arms, my fists I offer you;
Of the son you bring, I am already the father.
Don't cry, sister!
You will have my savings,
You will have everything you see in here...
Your good sister-in-law gave me two puppies;
Pretend, sister, that I already have three.
