Lyrics
De aldea en aldea el viento lo lleva
Siguiendo el sendero
Su patria es el mundo
Como un vagabundo va el titiritero
Viene de muy lejos
Cruzando los viejos
Caminos de piedra
Es de aquella raza
Que de plaza en Plaza
Nos canta su pena
¡Allez hop
¡Titiritero, allez hop
De feria en feria, siempre risueño
Canta sus sueños y sus miserias
VacÃa su alforja
De sueños que forja
En su andar tan largo
Nos baja una estrella
Que borra la huella
De un recuerdo amargo
Canta su romanza
Al son de una danza
HÃbrida y extraña
Para que el aldeano
Le llene la mano
Con lo poco que haya
¡Allez hop
¡Titiritero, allez hop
De feria en feria, siempre risueño
Canta sus sueños y sus miserias
Y al caer la noche
En el viejo coche
Guardará los chismes
Y tal como vino
Sigue su camino
Solitario y triste
Y quizá mañana
Por esa ventana
Que muestra el sendero
Nos llegue su queja
Mientras que se aleja
El titiritero
Lyrics translation
From village to village the wind takes it
Following the path
Their homeland is the world
Like a hobo goes the puppeteer
It comes from far away
Crossing the old ones
Stone roads
He's from that race.
That from Square to square
He sings to us his sorrow
Come On hop
♪ Puppeteer, go on hop ♪
From fair to fair, always laughing
Sing your dreams and your miseries
Cow your saddlebag
Of dreams forging
In his walk so long
We get a star down
That erases the footprint
Of a bitter memory
Sing your romance
To the sound of a dance
Drunk and foreign
For the villager
Fill your hand
With how little there is
Come On hop
♪ Puppeteer, go on hop ♪
From fair to fair, always laughing
Sing your dreams and your miseries
And at nightfall
In the old car
Will keep the gossip
And just as he came
He's on his way.
Lonely and sad
And maybe tomorrow
Through that window
Showing the trail
We received your complaint
As he walks away
The puppeteer
