Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ahi Va La Madera by Bacilos from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Ahí va la madera
There goes the wood
Ahí va la madera
There goes the wood
Va para otra tierra
He's going to another land
A volverse mesa
To become a table
A volverse tabla
Becoming a board
A volverse un ataúd
To become a coffin
Pero aquí era el árbol del amor
But here was the tree of love
De un pájaro en peligro de extinción
From an endangered bird
Que ya no vuela, ya no vuela
It doesn't fly anymore, it doesn't fly anymore
Pero aquí marcaba la estación
But here he marked the station
Con flores de colores ya no
With colorful flowers no longer
Que ya no regresan, no regresan
They don't come back anymore, they don't come back
Ahí va la madera.
There goes the wood
Pero aquí era el árbol.
But here was the tree
Se vende y se está pagando
It is sold and is being paid
Lo que queda de esta tierra
What's left of this land
Lo que queda es pa? pagar
What's left is Pa? Pay
El caro precio de esta historia
The expensive price of this story
De la historia
From history
Ahí va la madera
There goes the wood
Oye muchachito lo que está pasando
Hey, kiddo, what's going on
Ahí se llevan la madera
That's where they take the wood
