The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Carnaval de Brasil" by Andrés Calamaro.
Lyrics
La musa es una sola musa
O es una serpiente de muchas cabezas
Los buscadores de promesas
La tientan con cerveza
Si se va puede volver, el dÃa menos pensado
Para darle su consuelo, al poeta mal hablado
No son mujeres ausentes
No son cuchillos en los dientes
No son martes de carnaval de Brasil
No son canciones urgentes
No son asuntos pendientes
No son martes de carnaval de Brasil
(Tristeza nao tein fim)
Habrá que desenvainar las espadas del texto
Y escribir una canción
Aunque no haya algún pretexto
Y dedicársela al primero que pase caminando
Al que se quedó pensando, al que no quiere pensar
Al olvido selectivo, a la memoria perdida
A los de los pedazos de vida que no vamos a perder
Jamás
No son mujeres ausentes
No son cuchillos en los dientes
No son martes de carnaval de Brasil
No son canciones urgentes
No son asuntos pendientes
No son martes de carnaval de Brasil
Lyrics translation
The muse is one muse
Or is it a snake with many heads
Promise seekers
They tempt her with beer
If you leave you can come back, the day less thought
To give comfort to the ill-spoken poet
They are not absent women
They're not knives in the teeth.
It's not Brazil's Carnival Tuesday
They're not urgent songs.
These are not pending matters
It's not Brazil's Carnival Tuesday
(Sadness not tein end)
You will have to draw the Swords of the text
And write a song
Even if there is no pretext
And dedicate it to the first one who walks by
The one who kept thinking, the one who doesn't want to think
To selective oblivion, to Lost Memory
To those of the pieces of life that we will not lose
Never
They are not absent women
They're not knives in the teeth.
It's not Brazil's Carnival Tuesday
They're not urgent songs.
These are not pending matters
It's not Brazil's Carnival Tuesday
