Amaral Robin Hood translation
Cuando tocaba en los bares
While I was playing in bars
un borracho me decía
a drunk man told me
En las cenizas del fracaso
In the ashes of failure
está la sabiduría
is wisdom
La piedra filosofal
The philosopher's stone
que yo busqué cada día
which I was searching every day
y aún no he podido encontrar,
and still haven't found
tal vez porque ya no exista.
maybe because it just doesn't exist
Cuando dormía en los parques
While I was sleeping in parks
un arcángel venía a protegerme de noche,
an archangel came to protect me from the night
a espantar a la policía.
to frighten the police
No sé lo que pasó,
I don't know what happened
si estaba escrito o no,
if it was written or not
si fue su culpa o la mía.
if it was his fault or mine
Pero mi ángel cayó,
But my angel fell
igual que yo caí en cada vicio que me descubría.
in the same way I fell victim to all the bad habits I've found
La diferencia entre él y yo,
The difference between him and me
es que yo aún sigo con vida.
is that I am still alive
Siempre tenía un plan,
He always had a plan
hablaba de escapar robando un barco del puerto.
he was talking about escaping, stealing a boat from the port
Si le hubiera dejado hubiera reventado
If I had left him he would have broken open
la caja fuerte de un banco
the safe of a bank
creyendo en delirios de Robin Hood
believing the illusions of Robin Hood
Delirios de Robin Hood
Illusions of Robin Hood
