Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Árbol torcío by Macaco from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Fui lo que fui, crecí como crecí
I was what I was, I grew up as I grew up
Quizás como un árbol torcío'
Maybe like a crooked tree'
Soy lo que vi, soy lo que sentí
I'm what I saw, I'm what I felt
Y un picor quedó como queda el niño
And a itching looked like the child
Busqué una raíz que agarrara mis pies
I looked for a root that grabbed my feet
Pero trepé en busca de la fruta más alta
But I climbed in search of the highest fruit
Sin saber que rama me bajaría después
Not knowing which branch would come down to me after
Y caí yo caí, y caí yo caí
And I fell, and I fell
Viví contra vivir con grito sin decir
I lived against living with screaming without saying
Y al final resquicios tatuados
And in the end tattooed squid
Tratados con el ayer, guardados en candados de papel
Treaties with yesterday, kept in paper padlocks
Un soplío' silencios desbordados
A snitch' overflowing silences
Robé esquemas de hombres libres sin leyes
I stole schemes of free men without laws
Andé a un palmo del suelo
I walked a span of the ground
Visitante de mi propio cuerpo cuerpo cuerpo
Visitor to my own body body
Y seguí yo seguí, y seguí yo seguí
And I went on, and I went on
