Joan Manuel Serrat "El titiritero" lyrics

Translation to:en

El titiritero

De aldea en aldeael viento lo llevasiguiendo el sendero,su patria es el mundo,como un vagabundova el titiritero.

Viene de muy lejos,cruzando los viejoscaminos de piedra.Es de aquella razaque de plaza en plaza,nos canta su pena.

¡Allez hop!¡Titiritero, allez hop!de feria en feria.Siempre risueño,canta sus sueñosy sus miserias.

Vacía su alforjade sueños que forjaen su andar tan largo.Nos baja una estrellaque borra la huellade un recuerdo amargo.

Canta su romanzaal son de una danzahíbrida y extraña,para que el aldeanole llene la manocon lo poco que haya.

¡Allez hop!¡Titiritero, allez hop!de feria en feria.Siempre risueño,canta sus sueñosy sus miserias.

Y al caer la nocheen el viejo cocheguardará los chismes,y tal como vinosigue su caminosolitario y triste.

Y quizá mañana,por esa ventanaque muestra el senderonos llegue su quejamientras que se alejael titiritero.

The puppeteer

From town to townthe wind takes himfollowing the path,his homeland is the world,like a vagabond,goes the puppeteer.

He comes from far away,crossing the oldpaths of stone.He is from that racethat from plaza to plazahe sings us his pain.

Allez hop!Puppeteer, allez hop!from festival to festival.Always cheerful,he sings his dreamsand his miseries.

Empty his saddlebagof dreams that he forgeson his long gait.He brings down a star for usthat erases the remnantof a bitter memory.

He sings his romanceto the sound of a dance -hybrid and foreign,so that the villagerfills his handwith the little there is.

Allez hop!Puppeteer, allez hop!from festival to festival.Always cheerful,he sings his dreamsand his miseries.

And at the fall of nightin the old carriagehe will put away the trinkets,and just as he camefollows his pathalone and sad.

And perhaps tomorrowthrough that windowwhich shows the pathhis complaint arrives to uswhile he is lost in the distancethe puppeteer.
