Текст и перевод песни Roberto Goyeneche - Pobre Gallo Bataraz

Pobre Gallo Bataraz

Pobre gallo bataraz
Se te está abriendo el pellejo
Ya ni pa dar un consejo
Como dicen, te encontrás
Porque estás enclenque y viejo
Pobre gallo bataraz
Pero en tus tiempos, cuidao
Con hacer bulla en la siesta
Se te paraba la cresta
Y había en la arena un finao
Y siga no más la fiesta
Porque en tus tiempos, cuidao.
Era de larga tu espuela
Como cola de peludo
Y a más de ser entrañudo
Eras guapo sin abuela
Porque hasta el más corajudo
Sintió terror por tu espuela
Si en los días de domingo
Había depositada
Ya estabas de madrugada
Sobre el lomo de mi pingo
Había que ver tu parada
Pocas plumas el domingo
Y si escaceaba la plata
O andaba medio tristón
Entre brinco y reculón
Me picaba la alpargata
Como diciendo patrón
Ya sabe si anda sin plata.
Pobre gallo bataraz
Nunca te echaré al olvido
Pimento ni maiz molido
No te ha de faltar jamás
Porque soy agradecido
Pobre gallo bataraz

Poor Battaraz Rooster

Poor Battaraz rooster
Your skin is breaking
You're no longer good
For giving advice
As they say, you are where you are
Because you are weak and old
Poor Battaraz rooster
But in your time, be careful
With making noise during siesta
Your crest would stand up
And there would be a novena for one who had passed
And the party would continue
Because in your time, be careful.
Your spurs were very long
Like a hairy tail
Besides being fierce
You were good-looking
Because even the most courageous
Were terrified of your spurs
If prizes were at stake on Sundays
You were already there at dawn
On the back of my horse
Your appearance had to be seen
Few feathers on Sunday
And if there was little money
Or if you were a little sad
Between jumping and backing up
You pecked at my sandal
As if saying, boss
You know when there's no money.
Poor Battaraz rooster
I'll never forget you
Cornbread or cornmeal
You'll never miss it
Because I'm grateful
Poor Battaraz rooster
