Текст и перевод песни Luis Eduardo Aute - El Niño Que Miraba el Mar

El Niño Que Miraba el Mar

Cada vez que veo esa fotografía
Que huye del cliché del álbum familiar
Miro a ese niño que hace de vigía
Oteando el más allá del fin del mar

Aún resuena en su cabeza el bombardeo
De una guerra de dragones sin cuartel
Su mirada queda oculta pero veo
Lo que ven sus ojos porque yo soy él

Y daría lo vivido
Por sentarme a su costado
Para verme en su futuro
Desde todo mi pasado

Y mirándole a los ojos
Preguntarle enmimismado
Si descubre a su verdugo
En mis ojos reflejado
Mientras él me ve mirar
A ese niño que miraba el mar

Ese niño ajeno al paso de las horas
Y que está poniendo en marcha su reloj
No es consciente de que incuba el mal de aurora
Ese mal del animal que ya soy yo

Frente a él oscuras horas de naufragios
Acumulan tumbas junto al malecón
Y sospecha que ese mar es un presagio
De que al otro lado espera otro dragón

Y daría lo vivido
Por sentarme a su costado
Para verme en su futuro
Desde todo mi pasado
Y mirándole a los ojos

Preguntarle enmimismado
Si descubre a su verdugo
En mis ojos reflejado
Mientras él me ve mirar
A ese niño que miraba el mar

The Boy Watching the Sea

Every time I see that photograph
That runs from the cliché of the family album
I look at the boy that is keeping watch
Watching over the horizon of the endless sea

The bombing of a merciless dragon war
Still resounds in his head
His gaze is hidden, but I see
What his eyes see because I am him

And I would give what I have lived
To sit by his side
To see myself in his future
From all my past

And looking in his eyes
Ask him silently
If he discovers his executioner
Reflected in my eyes
As he sees me look
At that boy who watched the sea

That boy unaware of the passing hours
Who is starting his clock
He is not aware that he is incubating the dawn star
That evil of the animal that I already am

Dark hours of shipwrecks before him
Accumulate graves by the pier
And he suspects that that sea is an omen
That on the other side awaits another dragon

And I would give what I have lived
To sit by his side
To see myself in his future
From all my past
And looking in his eyes

Ask him silently
If he discovers his executioner
Reflected in my eyes
As he sees me look
At that boy who watched the sea
