Lyrics

Lucho toda una vida,
un hombre de clase media
y de lejos se puede notar,
el aire de buena gente
nunca tuvo mucho tiempo
para cultivar su ingenio
pero es mas listo de lo que se ve,
se le nota en la mirada
ay!, cansada, cansada
cada vez va mas lento,
apoyando el bastón del lado izquierdo
y te habla y te cuenta
de que tiempo aquellos
llenos de polvo y soledad
mi amigo Sebastián.
Caso desde muy joven
enviudo hace mucho tiempo
un solo hijo que jamás volvió
tal vez se lo trago la tierra
y nunca tuvo mucha suerte
si es que se habla de dinero
sin darse cuenta solo se quedo,
y casi con un siglo entero
y espera, y espera
a que cada quincena,
el estado le pase una miseria
que suerte, que suerte
tal vez se pague una cena
y para mañana Dios dirá.
Mi amigo Sebastián, mi amigo Sebastián.
Y van unos días
que ya no lo veo pasar
que raro!, tal vez se fue a otro lugar
que raro!, sin despedirse y sin decirme nada
tal vez no le dio tiempo de avisar
ojalá que encuentre paz.
Mi amigo Sebastián.

Lyrics translation

I fight my whole life,
a middle-class man
and from afar you can notice,
the air of good people
he never had much time.
to cultivate their ingenuity
but he's smarter than you can see.,
you can see it in your eyes
ay! tired, tired, tired
it's getting slower and slower,
supporting the cane on the left side
and he talks to you and tells you
of what time those
full of dust and loneliness
my friend Sebastian.
Case from a very young age
widowed a long time ago
a single son who never came back
maybe I'll swallow it up.
and he was never very lucky
if you're talking about money
without realizing it just stayed,
and almost a whole century
and wait, and wait
that every fortnight,
the state spent a misery on him
what Luck, What luck
maybe he'll buy himself a dinner.
and by tomorrow God will say.
My friend Sebastian, my friend Sebastian.
And it takes a few days
I don't see it happening anymore
that's weird! maybe he went somewhere else.
that's weird!, without saying goodbye and without telling me anything
maybe he didn't give him time to warn
I hope you find peace.
My friend Sebastian.
