The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Se Olvidó" by Leo Jiménez.
Lyrics
Prisionero del desierto
solitario como un Tuareg.
Maltratado, humillado,
siente el miedo de poder sufrir.
Las estrellas le acompañan en silencio al anochecer.
Heredero de un legado escondido solo en la fe.
Se pasa el tiempo mirando al sol.
Ya su ceguera no puede parar.
Fría su alma, todo le da igual.
No existe razón, no ve solución,
él ya no tiene valor.
En su rostro reflejadas
las arrugas de la libertad.
El estigma de su alma
lleva el sello de la humildad.
Mira de nuevo a la luna
en su instinto por sobrevivir.
Está frío como el hielo
presintiendo que puede morir.
Pero un día todo le cambió,
Y en su tristeza a lo lejos sintió,
la mano de Dios le quería ayudar.
Sintió que era un sueño,
que no era real,
esclavo de su soledad.
Se olvidó
la alegría al despertar.
Se olvidó
el calor de la amistad.
Se olvidó
darle al tiempo su lugar.
Se olvidó
ver que todo no es maldad.
La locura es su sentencia
caminando solo en su verdad.
Maldiciendo con desprecio
todo lo que le pueda salvar.
Encerrado en su frontera
muere solo en su pedestal.
No hay lamento, no hay tristeza,
ni siquiera alguien llorará.
Y aquí se acaba esta historia fatal.
En algún pueblo, en alguna ciudad
puede haber alguien sufriendo así.
Se encierra en su mundo
y no quiere salir,
es la cruda realidad.
Se olvidó
darle al tiempo su lugar.
Se olvidó
ver que todo no es maldad.
Lyrics translation
Desert prisoner
lonely as a Tuareg.
Abused, humiliated,
he feels the fear of suffering.
The stars accompany him in silence at dusk.
Heir to a legacy hidden only in faith.
He spends his time staring at the sun.
His blindness can't stop.
Cold his soul, he doesn't care.
No reason, no solution,
he has no courage anymore.
On his face reflected
the wrinkles of freedom.
The stigma of his soul
it bears the seal of humility.
Look back at the moon
in his instinct to survive.
It's cold as ice
feeling like he might die.
But one day everything changed him,
And in his sadness in the distance he felt,
the hand of God wanted to help him.
He felt it was a dream,
that it wasn't real,
slave to his loneliness.
He forgot.
the joy of awakening.
He forgot.
the warmth of friendship.
He forgot.
give time its place.
He forgot.
see that everything is not evil.
Madness is his sentence
walking alone in his truth.
Cursing with contempt
anything that can save him.
Locked up on his border
he dies alone on his pedestal.
There is no regret, there is no sadness,
not even someone will cry.
And this is where this fatal story ends.
In some town, in some city
there may be someone suffering like this.
He locks himself in his world
and he doesn't want to go out,
it's the raw reality.
He forgot.
give time its place.
He forgot.
see that everything is not evil.
