The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Del Mismo Barro" by Leon Gieco.
Lyrics
llegaba a Buenos Aires,
era marzo de neblinas
del tren bajé temblando.
Parecíamos todos del mismo barro.
Los almendros saludaban
al último gran verano,
lamentaban no hacer más sombra
a unos gatos naufragando.
Parecíamos esperanzas caminando.
Dónde quedó esa canción,
quizás adentro del corazón.
Todavía quedaba algo
del libro de primer grado.
Se saludaban los pelos largos
cuando las calles se cruzaban.
Parecíamos todos del mismo barro.
Lucy traía unos diamantes
de un mundo inesperado,
Francia en colores del día domingo,
marcha de los estudiantes.
Dónde quedó esa canción
quizás adentro del corazón.
Lyrics translation
I was coming to Buenos Aires,
it was foggy March
I got off the train trembling.
We all looked like the same mud.
The almonds waved
to the last great summer,
they regretted not making more shade
a cat shipwreck.
We seemed hopeful walking.
Where did that song go?,
maybe inside the heart.
There was still something left.
from the first grade book.
They greeted the long hairs
when the streets crossed.
We all looked like the same mud.
Lucy brought some diamonds.
from an unexpected World,
France in Sunday Day colors,
students march.
Where did that song go?
maybe inside the heart.
