El viejo comunista [English translation]
El viejo comunista [English translation]
An old man who used to be a communist
sits down to smoke the entire evening.
While good rain falls outside
the old man thinks with a naked voice.
Why is it that they coincide on his window,
the grey pigeons and the sorrow he smoked
the grey pigeons and the sorrow he smoked.
He turns his eyes to that distant day
back when to a book there was a verse,
to a girl, a thought
back when to a book there was a verse,
to a girl, a thought
He believes nothing can surprise him anymore
that he's cured fron fright,
he wore out crying
that he's cured of the fright,
that he wore out crying
He remembered songs he used to sing
and conversations he had with friends until dawn
and conversations he had with friends until dawn.
He remembered the corner of his house
when he said good bye and saw his mother crying
when he said good bye and saw his mother crying.
And now it's also raining in his eyes
because he's surprised it still hurts.
The years, life, his love,
they all still hurt.
