Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Bola de Cristal by Mecano from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Una noche tropical
A tropical night
Una bola de cristal
A crystal ball
Un extraño ejemplar
A strange specimen
De la fauna sideral
Of the sidereal fauna
Quién puede ser
Who can be
Si nadie conoce su nombre
If no one knows your name
Y todo el mundo se pregunta
And everyone wonders
Si eso es un hombre
If that's a man
Y no lo entienden porque no habla
And they don't understand him because he doesn't speak.
El inglés, ni el francés sólo hace ruidos
English, nor does French only make noises
El alcalde provincial
The provincial mayor
Ha empezado a investigar
You have started researching
Qué vino a hacer
What he came to do
Y los niños del lugar
And the local children
Quieren que vaya a arbitrar
They want me to referee.
Quién puede ser
Who can be
Si nadie conoce su nombre
If no one knows your name
Y todo el mundo se pregunta
And everyone wonders
Si eso es un hombre
If that's a man
Y no lo entienden porque no habla
And they don't understand him because he doesn't speak.
El inglés, ni el francés sólo hace ruidos
English, nor does French only make noises
