Текст и перевод песни Soledad Bravo - Pobre del cantor

Pobre del cantor

Pobre del cantor de nuestros días
Que no arriesgue su cuerda
Por no arriesgar su vida.
Pobre del cantor que nunca sepa
Que fuimos la semilla y hoy somos esta vida.
Pobre del cantor que un día la historia
Lo borre sin la gloria de haber tocado espinas.
Pobre del cantor que fue marcado
Para sufrir un poco y hoy está derrotado.
Pobre del cantor que a sus informes
Les borren hasta el nombre con copias asesinas.
Pobre del cantor que no se alce
Y siga hacia adelante con más canto y más vida.
Pobre del cantor que no halle el modo
De tener bien seguro su proceder con todos.
Pobre del cantor que no se imponga
Con su canción de gloria, con embarres y lodos.
Pobre del cantor de nuestros días
Que no arriesgue su cuerda
Por no arriesgar su vida.
Pobre del cantor que nunca sepa
Que fuimos la semilla y hoy somos esta vida.

Pobre del cantor

Poor singer of our day
Who won't risk your voice
So as not to risk your life.
Poor singer who never knows
That we were the seed and today we are this life.
Poor singer that one day history
Will erase you without the glory of having touched thorns.
Poor singer who was marked
To suffer a little and today is defeated.
Poor singer who to your reports
They erase even the name with killer copies.
Poor singer who won't stand up
And keep walking forward with more singing and more life.
Poor singer who doesn't find the way
To have your behaviour with everyone well assured.
Poor singer who doesn't impose yourself
With your song of glory, with mud and swamps.
Poor singer of our day
Who won't risk your voice
So as not to risk your life.
Poor singer who never knows
That we were the seed and today we are this life.
