Visa Para Un Sueño Lyrics in English Juan Luis Guerra
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Visa Para Un Sueño by Juan Luis Guerra from Spanish to English.
Eran las cinco de la mañana
It was five in the morning
Un seminarista, un obrero
A seminarian, a worker
Con mil papeles de solvencia
With a thousand solvency papers
Que no les dan pa' ser sinceros
that don't give them enough, to be honest
Eran las siete de la mañana
It was seven in the morning
Y uno por uno al matadero
And one by one to the slaughterhouse
Cada cual tiene su precio
Everyone has their price
Buscando visa para un sueño
Looking for a visa for a dream
El sol quemándoles la entraña
The sun burning their insides
Un formulario de consuelo
A consolation form
Con una foto dos por cuatro
With a two-by-four photo
Que se derrite en el silencio
that melts in the silence
Eran las nueve de la mañana
It was nine in the morning
Santo Domingo, ocho de enero
Santo Domingo, January eighth
Con la paciencia que se acaba
With the patience that is running out
Pues ya no hay visa para un sueño
Because there's no visa for a dream anymore
No, no
No, no
Buscando visa para un sueño
Looking for a visa for a dream
Buscando visa para un sueño
Looking for a visa for a dream
Buscando visa de cemento y cal
Looking for a cement-and-lime visa
Y en el asfalto quién me va a encontrar, no
And on the asphalt who's gonna find me, no
Buscando visa para un sueño
Looking for a visa for a dream
Buscando visa para un sueño
Looking for a visa for a dream
Buscando visa, la razón de ser
Looking for a visa, the reason to be
Buscando visa para no volver, no
Looking for a visa to not come back, no
Buscando visa para un sueño
Looking for a visa for a dream
Buscando visa para un sueño
Looking for a visa for a dream
Buscando visa, la necesidad
Looking for a visa, the necessity
Buscando visa, qué rabia me da
Looking for a visa, how mad it makes me
Buscando visa, golpe de poder
Looking for a visa, a power blow
Buscando visa, qué mas puedo hacer yo
Looking for a visa, what else can I do
Buscando visa, para naufragar
Looking for a visa, to shipwreck
Buscando visa, carne de la mar
Looking for a visa, meat of the sea
Buscando visa, la razón de ser
Looking for a visa, the reason to be
Buscando visa, para no volver, bi
Looking for a visa, to not come back, bye
