Jaime Roos — Retirada song lyrics and translation
The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Retirada" by Jaime Roos.
Lyrics
Recordaron sus labios
La diferencia
Del gusto del café
«El mundo es uno solo
Y las nostalgias
Espejismo nomás»
Se clavó su mirada
En la leyenda
Que ordenaba en francés
«Mis pies sobre la ruta
Mi pensamiento
Vuela universal»
El viento lo entonaba
Y se acordaba
De un saludo cordial
La música inmigrante
Le preparaba
Un encuentro casual
Y así como venía
Le dió de punta
A una pelota fugaz
Flotaba aún la idea
Contradiciendo
El sentido común
De corte sensiblero
Palabra seria
Ritmo trascendental
Era una retirada
Que al despedirse
Quiere regresar
«…Se va se va la murga
Aunque ya nunca
Pueda decir adiós
Y a la gentil barriada
Va dedicada
Nuestra humilde canción…»
«Mis pies sobre la ruta
Los sentimientos
Señalan al Sur
«El rumbo es uno solo
Y las nostalgias
Nos ayudan a andar»
Era una retirada
Que al despedirse
Quiere regresar
«…Se va se va la murga
Aunque ya nunca
Pueda decir adiós…
Lyrics translation
They remembered their lips
Difference
From the taste of coffee
"The world is one
And nostalgia
Mirage just»
He stared at her
In the legend
Who ordered in French
"My feet on the road
My thought
Universal fly»
The wind sang it
And he remembered
Of a cordial greeting
Immigrant music
I was preparing him
A casual encounter
And just as it came
He tipped him off.
To a fleeting ball
The idea was still floating
Contradict
Common sense
Sensitive cutting
Serious word
Transcendental rhythm
It was a retreat.
That when saying goodbye
He wants to come back.
"...Is going is going to murga
Although never again
May I say goodbye
And the gentle slum
It's dedicated
Our humble song…»
"My feet on the road
Feeling
They point to the South
"The course is one
And nostalgia
They help us walk»
It was a retreat.
That when saying goodbye
He wants to come back.
"...Is going is going to murga
Although never again
May I say goodbye…
