Hombre de lata [English translation]

Tin man

Only your tongue resists it

And the more it cuts

The more it pleases you and you see that it puts up with it

Sooner or later

You will only eat snow

Snow from her warm breast

You will have to burn your life

On one day?

Your life on one day?

Eyes without a devil

You only eat what is wounded

Fibre bear

Not even treason is left for you

Sooner or later

Only dirt will be left

Dirt with your lightning to the sky

You will have to preserve your life

All day

Life

Everyday

Tin man

Only your tongue resists it

And the more it cuts

The more it pleases you and you see that it puts up with it

Sooner or later

You will only eat snow

Snow from her warm breast

You will have to burn your life

On one day?

Your life on one day?
