Soy vagabundo [English translation]

Tramping along I go, I'm a tramp

Because I haven't found in this world

A place to spend happy hours

A place to settle down

A place to plant the fruitful new tree

The musical sap I have inside

Tramping along I go, I'm a tramp

And each lack of understanding is like a wall

That limits the reach of my impulses

And I bite the words; but I don't insult

Before I swear I proudly prefer

To be just that, a tramp

I'm the man who goes, I am the man who comes

I'm the one who isn't in places where it's not advisable to be

The envy and the resentment are similar in everything

In me they're dead beasts because they never bite me

Tired of hearing the voice of harshness

The orphan of love fills it up with pride

Tired of looking into everything like a swamp

That passion is mud and friendship is mire

I gave myself to tramping everywhere

Trying to find what I can't come across

The man who goes the man who comes

I'm the one who isn't in places where it's not advisable to be

Chorus:

I endlessly walk, I'm a tramp
