Era una fría noche de Abril
It was a cold April night
El cielo se cubrió de sombras
The sky was covered in shadows
La lluvia hacía el amor acariciando Madrid
The rain made love caressing Madrid
Y el Verbo se hizo carne y habitó en Chamberí
And the Word became flesh and lived in Chamberí
De su profundo sueño despertó
From deep sleep he woke up
'Tumbao'' en un banco en medio de la plaza
'Tumbao'' on a bench in the middle of the square
Envuelto entre sábanas de frío y cartón
Wrapped between cold sheets and cardboard
A flor de piel su rabia y en su mirada la razón
His rage is on the surface and reason is in his eyes
'Escuchad mi palabra
'Listen to my word
Un mandamiento nuevo os doy
I give you a new commandment
Derribad las naciones
overthrow the nations
Con tolerancia y a golpes de amor'
With tolerance and with blows of love'
Mi reino no es de este mundo
My kingdom is not of this world
Y en mi patria no se pone el sol
And in my country the sun does not set
Donde la paz aborta nacen sus fronteras
Where peace aborts, its borders are born
Mi ejército el instinto y por juez el corazón
My army is instinct and my heart is my judge
Mi política es la libertad
My politics is freedom
Y soy el rey de los oprimidos
And I am the king of the oppressed
Por cada preso de conciencia que encarceláis
For every prisoner of conscience you imprison
El miedo y la ignorancia a vuestra piel encadenáis
Fear and ignorance chain your skin
'Escuchad mi palabra
'Listen to my word
Un mandamiento nuevo os doy
I give you a new commandment
Derribad las naciones
overthrow the nations
Con tolerancia y a golpes de amor'
With tolerance and with blows of love'
En un callejón
In an alleyway
Sara vende su amor

Alquila SIDA hasta las dos
Rent AIDS until two
Rogando a Dios que calme su dolor
Praying God to ease your pain
Huid del sexo dice un predicador
Flee from sex says a preacher
Porque es maligno y fuente de pecado
Because he is evil and a source of sin
Os dejo un mandamiento nuevo haced el amor
I leave you a new commandment, make love
Y no pongáis al campo puertas que no he puesto yo
And do not put gates in the field that I have not put in
Como discípulos a doce eligió
He chose twelve as disciples
Dos prostitutas, cinco expresidiarios
Two prostitutes, five ex-convicts
Dos inmigrantes negros y un poeta de Rock
Two black immigrants and a Rock poet
A Pedro el vagabundo y a un toxicómano menor
Pedro the tramp and a minor drug addict
'Escuchad mi palabra
'Listen to my word
Un mandamiento nuevo os doy
I give you a new commandment
Derribad las naciones
overthrow the nations
Con tolerancia y a golpes de amor'
With tolerance and with blows of love'
