Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vas a Bailar (Acústico) by Ciro Y Los Persas from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
En estos tiempos de oquedad, de oscuridad iluminada,
In these times of hollowness, of illuminated darkness,
De distracción a perpetuidad, de imbecilidad tan programada.
Of perpetual distraction, of imbecility so programmed.
Aunque no encuentres la voz, aunque te paguen con platos de arroz,
Even if you don't find your voice, even if they pay you with plates of rice,
Aunque te asustes y puedas caer, la dignidad no se pierde sabes.
Even if you get scared and you may fall, dignity is not lost, you know.
No estás aquí para pasar sin que te vean, que carajo!
You are not here to pass without being seen, what the hell!
Si ser lo mismo es virtud, vos sabés bien que también es quietud,
If being the same is a virtue, you know well that it is also stillness,
Si anda rondando la felicidad no tengas tanto temor de cambiar.
If happiness is around, don't be so afraid of changing.
Vas a bailar, como si fuera la última noche.
You are going to dance, like if it was the last night.
Vas a bailar, como si fuera la última noche.
You are going to dance, like if it was the last night.
No sos un mueble en un rincón, o solo un número en un legajo.
You are not a piece of furniture in a corner, or just a number in a file.
Te quiero oír respirar, quiero abrazarte y sentirte vibrar,
I want to hear you breathe, I want to hug you and feel you vibrate,
No hay que viajar a otra dimensión,
You don't have to travel to another dimension,
Para escuchar lo que suena mejor, dentro tuyo.
To hear what sounds best, within you.
Vas a bailar, como si fuera la última noche.
You are going to dance, like if it was the last night.
Vas a bailar, como si fuera la última noche.
You are going to dance, like if it was the last night.
Si ser lo mismo es virtud, vos sabes bien que también es quietud,
If being the same is a virtue, you know well that it is also stillness,
No hay que viajar a otra dimensión,
You don't have to travel to another dimension,
Para escuchar lo que suena mejor, dentro tuyo.
To hear what sounds best, within you.
Vas a bailar, como si fuera la última noche.
You are going to dance, like if it was the last night.
Vas a bailar, como si fuera la última noche.
You are going to dance, like if it was the last night.
Vas a bailar, como si nadie estuviera viendo.
You're going to dance, like no one is watching.
Vas a bailar, porque no hay otro que este momento.
You are going to dance, because there is no other than this moment.
Tanta soledad, todos conectados,
So much loneliness, all connected,
Niños de pantalla bienvenidos al mercado.
Screen children welcome to the market.
