Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Charly by Joan Sebastian from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Por el rumbo sur de la ciudad
By the south direction of the city
Donde la luna es infiel
Where the moon is unfaithful
Charly va aa gran velocidad
Charly goes at high speed
Surte pizas para un motel
Stock parts for a motel
La motoneta que parece extencion de el
The scooter that looks like an extension of it
Vaa cual zaeta ese noctanbulo corcel
That nocturnal steed goes like a zaeta
Por el rumbo a quel de la ciudad
On the way to that city
Un negocio a salido mal y el tiroteo comenzo
A business went wrong and the shooting started
Como te fuiste a cruzar chabal
How did you go to cross chabal
La motoneta por el suelo rodo el corcel
The scooter on the ground rolled the steed
La camiseta no blindo el corazon de el
The t-shirt did not bind his heart
Suenan las sirenas esa noche tiene una historia de mas
The sirens sound that night has a story too many
Y dia de propinas y un sueldito y un gran sueño hoy fugas
And tip day and a little luck and a big dream today leaks
Por el rumbo sur de la ciudad
By the south direction of the city
Hoy a charly van a enterrar
Today they are going to bury charly
El noticiero comento no los pudieron atrapar
The newscast commented they couldn't catch them
Niña bonita la que llora por el chabal
Pretty girl the one who cries for the chabal
Por que a charly por que si el a nadie le hacia mal
Why to charly why if he did not hurt anyone
Suenan las sirenas esa noche tiene una historia de mas
The sirens sound that night has a story too many
Y dia de propinas y un sueldito y un gran sueño hoy fugas
And tip day and a little luck and a big dream today leaks
Suenan las sirenas esa noche tiene una historia de mas
The sirens sound that night has a story too many
Y dia de propinas de un sueldito de un gran sueño y nada mas
And tip day of a dream of a great dream and nothing else
