The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Eran Tres" by Alberto Cortez.
Lyrics
Eran tres, eran tres, eran tres…
eran tres con palomas en las manos…
eran tres y los tres eran hermanos
de la luz, del amor y del saber.
Eran tres y se fueron los tres…
El primero detrás de algunos versos,
el segundo a pintar el universo
y tercero en mitad de su niñez…
Pablo gorrión, Pablo poeta y marinero,
Pablo arlequín, Pablo pintor, Pablo torero,
Pablo y «„el cant dels ocells“», Pablo maestro,
Pablos de todos, Pablos de nadie… Pablos nuestros.
Eran tres, eran tres, eran tres…
Tres senderos, tres huellas, tres caminos,
tres Quijotes venciendo a los molinos
con un cello, un poema y un pincel.
Eran tres y se fueron los tres…
nos quedamos sin Pablos en el mundo
y lo bello, sin ellos, moribundo…
Lyrics translation
There were three, there were three, there were three…
they were three with pigeons in their hands…
there were three and all three were brothers
of light, of love and of knowledge.
There were three of them, and the three of them were gone.…
The first one behind some verses,
the second to paint the universe
and third in the middle of his childhood…
Pablo Sparrow, Pablo poet and Sailor,
Pablo Harlequin, Pablo painter, Pablo torero,
Paul and"" the cant dels ocells"", Paul master,
All of us, all of us ... all of us.
There were three, there were three, there were three…
Three paths, three footprints, three paths,
three Quixotes beating the mills
with a cello, a poem and a brush.
There were three of them, and the three of them were gone.…
we run out of Pablos in the world
and the beautiful, without them, dying…
