Faltando menos de un año para morirse
Less than a year to go until he dies
Onésimo se encontró al amor de su vida
Onesimus found the love of his life
Después de vivir robándole a gente triste
After living stealing from sad people
Tocó a la puerta de su alma Laura Farina
Laura Farina Knocked on the Door of Her Soul
Onésimo, en su mundo de saco y corbata
Onesimus, in his world of a jacket and tie
Jamás respetó a los que no tuvieran plata
He never respected those who didn't have money
Él siempre consideró lo más importante
He always considered the most important thing
Sobre la espalda del pobe echar pa'lante
On the back of the poor man to talk
La única rosa que vió aquel pueblo fue la
The only rose that town saw was the
Que a Laura él le regaló, y contaba riéndose
That he gave Laura as a gift, and he was counting laughing
Mama Grande, ni así la hembra se le entregó
Mama Grande, not even like that the female was given to her
Habla Senador, miente a la nación, engañando
Speak Senator, lie to the nation, deceiving
Gente ganaste un millón, pero de nada te vale
People you won a million, but it's no use to you
Pues tu corazón falló al momento en que funcionó
Well your heart failed the moment it worked
La única vez que tu alma quiso hablar la verdad
The only time your soul wanted to speak the truth
Ya era muy tarde para conversar
It was already too late to talk
'último premio, final soborno: haz que me quiera
'last prize, final bribe: make him love me
Viejo francés. Mira que muero, ten compasión
Old French. Look I'm dying, have pity
Mujer Laura Farina, couchez avec moi, allez'
Woman Laura Farina, couchez avec moi, allez'
Pájaro de papel no puede volar
Paper bird can't fly
