Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tratando De Crecer by Juan Carlos Baglietto from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Como decia un catalán, voy tratando de crecer
As a Catalan said, I'm trying to grow
y no de sentar cabeza,pibe de barrio buen tropero en la partida
and not to settle down, kid from the neighborhood, a good tropero in the game
un miembro mas del circo desesperado
one more member of the desperate circus
un punto en un planeta, un bicho que camina
a point on a planet, a bug that walks
Aun resuenan los acordes, de una guerra en si bemol
The chords still resound, of a war in B flat
sin ninguna melodia, una mamó le pone nombre a su machito
Without any melody, a mother names her machito
y asi las flores crecen junto a los cardos
and so the flowers grow next to the thistles
y derrotan las tormentas, y se caen y levantan
and they defeat the storms, and they fall and rise
Todavia me emocionan ciertas voces
I'm still moved by certain voices
todavia creo en mirar a los ojos
I still believe in looking into your eyes
todavia tengo en mente cambiar algo
I still have in mind to change something
todavia y a dios gracias todavia
still and thank god still
El sol quema la lengua de los lagartos
The sun burns the tongue of the lizards
la verdad es buen veneno pa' las tripas
the truth is good poison for the guts
todavia hay mucha gente que esta viva
there are still many people who are alive
todavia y Dios gracias todavia.
still and God thank you still.
Multiplicar, es la tarea, es la tarea ...
Multiply, it's homework, it's homework...
Como canción de carnaval, se metio por el bolsillo
Like a carnival song, it went into the pocket
un cielito pa' mis hijos, un tiempo nuevo y bueno
a little heaven for my children, a new and good time
pincelado de otras formas, tirando un poco mas
brushwork in other ways, pulling a little more
a los colores fuertes, donde el mar salude a todos
to strong colors, where the sea greets everyone
donde un beso sea moneda corriente.
where a kiss is common currency.
Todavia me emocionan ciertas voces …
Certain voices still move me..
