Cuando yo Era un Enano - Silvio Rodríguez перевод на английский

Cuando yo Era un Enano

Cuando yo era chiquito todo quedaba cerca cerquita,
Para llegar al cielo no más bastaba una subidita.
El sueño me alcanzaba para ir tan lejos como quería,
Cuando yo era chiquito yo si podía, yo si podía.
Libertad, libertad, libertad para mi niño.
Libertad, libertad, libertad, libertad.
Cuando yo era vejigo me iba p′al río porque era hermoso,
Aunque estaba prohibido por peligroso, por peligroso.
Como jagüey y ceiba, como la palma y la yagruma.
Cuando yo era vejigo yo era del monte y soñaba espuma.
Libertad, libertad, libertad para mi niño.
Libertad, libertad, libertad, libertad.
Cuando yo era un enano viví pasiones tan memorables
Con los zapatos rotos y la sonrisa menos amable.
Tierra bajo las uñas, manos sin pena tocando mundo
Cuando yo era un enano era profundo, era profundo.
Libertad, libertad, libertad para mi niño.
Libertad, libertad, libertad, libertad.

When I Was a Dwarf

When I was little, everything was close by,
To reach heaven, all it took was a climb.
My dreams were enough to take me as far as I wanted,
When I was little, I could do it, I could do it.
Freedom, freedom, freedom for my child.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom.
When I was a toddler, I went to the river because it was beautiful,
Although it was forbidden because it was dangerous, because it was dangerous.
Like a jagüey and ceiba tree, like a palm and a yagruma tree.
When I was a toddler, I was from the countryside and I dreamed of foam.
Freedom, freedom, freedom for my child.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom.
When I was a dwarf, I lived through such memorable passions
With broken shoes and a less than kind smile.
Earth under my nails, hands touching the world without pain.
When I was a dwarf, I was profound, I was profound.
Freedom, freedom, freedom for my child.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom.
