Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Zonaja by Café Tacvba from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Prostitutas salen del lugar de los hechos
Prostitutes leave the scene
Los amantes prohibidos aman sin velo
Forbidden lovers love without veil
Es muy tarde, ya si
It is too late, and if
Yo se que es muy tarde
I know it's too late
Y una decadencia se respira en el aire
And a decadence is breathed in the air
El alcohol que da otro aspecto a las cosas
The alcohol that gives another aspect to things
Aun la calle parece muy transitada
Even the street seems very busy
Una zona en que todo esta vivo
An area where everything is alive
Vivo como el fantasma de un amigo
I live like the ghost of a friend
Es una nostalgia, una decadencia, algo divertido
It's nostalgia, a decadence, something funny.
Pero es un gran miedo a la soledad
But it's a great fear of loneliness.
No se apagan nunca aquí las grandes luces
The big lights are never turned off here
Amanece y nunca nadie se da cuenta
Dawn and no one ever notices
¡Parece que otro día va a comenzar!
It looks like another day is going to start!
Pero a mi no me verán hasta el anochecer
But they won't see me until nightfall.
Es una nostalgia, un morir muy joven, un olor a antro
It is a nostalgia, a very young death, a smell of a club.
Del cual nunca puedo yo escapar
From which I can never escape
