Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Torre de Babel by David Bisbal from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Todo va mal y todo está al revés
Everything is going wrong and everything is upside down
Y tal vez no haya una segunda vez
And maybe there won't be a second time.
Para mirar las rosas rojas del Edén
To look at the red roses of Eden
Que se abre el suelo bajo nuestros pies
That the ground opens under our feet
Y caerás no importa donde estés
And you will fall no matter where you are
Sobre las ruinas de la Torre de Babel
On the ruins of the Tower of Babel
De nuestro trato ya no que queda nada
Nothing remains of our treatment
No te hemos dado lo que tú esperabas
We haven't given you what you expected
Roto el corazón
Broken heart
Ahora sangra de dolor
Now he bleeds from pain
Por timonel un grupo de invidentes
By helmsman a group of blind people
Que se ha encallado en este mar de gente
That has run aground in this sea of people
Nada importa ya
Nothing matters anymore
Nada tiene su lugar
Nothing has its place
Se puede respirar
You can breathe
Tanta desolación
So much desolation
De lágrimas al viento
From tears to the wind
Y va una cruz en medio de la procesión
And there is a cross in the middle of the procession
Todo va mal y todo está al revés
Everything is going wrong and everything is upside down
Y tal vez no haya una segunda vez
And maybe there won't be a second time.
Para mirar las rosas rojas del Edén
To look at the red roses of Eden
Que se abre el suelo bajo nuestros pies
That the ground opens under our feet
Y caerás no importa donde estés
And you will fall no matter where you are
Sobre las ruinas de la Torre de Babel
On the ruins of the Tower of Babel
Ciegos, estúpidos e indiferentes
Blind, stupid and indifferent
Masa febril de ricos e indigentes
Febrile mass of rich and destitute
Pasto de cortar
Cutting grass
Que no sabe adonde va
Who doesn't know where he's going
Somos fichas de un ajedrez siniestro
We are pieces of a sinister chess
Para apostar en pleno nuestros cuerpos
To bet fully on our bodies
Sembrar fuego por doquier
Sowing fire everywhere
Los hombres de razón
Men of reason
Especie en extinción
Endangered species
Ha muerto la consciencia
Consciousness is dead
Y solo queda el eco de la decepción
And only the echo of disappointment remains.
Que se te acaba el tiempo
That you are running out of time
De abrir los ojos
Opening your eyes
Antes del abismo
Before the abyss
Que da lo mismo
It doesn't matter.
Porque eres prisionero de tu egoísmo
Because you are a prisoner of your egoism
No des la espalda al llanto de la gente
Don't turn your back on people's crying
Que lo que mata es ser indiferente
That what kills is to be indifferent
No des la vuelta a la tormenta
Don't turn the storm around
Porque al final serás quien pague la cuenta
Because in the end you will be the one who pays the bill
Quiero cielo transparente
I want transparent sky
En el mundo entero
Worldwide
Todo va mal y todo está al revés
Everything is going wrong and everything is upside down
Y tal vez no haya una segunda vez
And maybe there won't be a second time.
Para mirar las rosas rojas del Edén
To look at the red roses of Eden
Que se abre el suelo bajo nuestros pies
That the ground opens under our feet
Y caerás no importa donde estés
And you will fall no matter where you are
Sobre las ruinas de la Torre de Babel
On the ruins of the Tower of Babel
