Singer: Los Bukis

Así están las cosas
Así está este mundo

That’s how things are
That’s how this world is

Qué cosas
Se ven hoy día
Ya no existe aquel control que había

What things
Are seen nowadays
We don’t have that control anymore

El mundo
Con sus locuras
No se puede detener y gira

The world
With its madness
Cannot be stopped, and it keeps turning

No entiendo
Tanta violencia
De aquellos pobres, ¿por qué tanta indiferencia?

I don’t understand
So much violence
From those poor ones, why so much indifference?

Qué tristes
Son las noticias
Y que por casa en los niños son las caricias

How sad
The news is
And how at home, it’s the children who receive the hugs

Que ya no escucha
Pues su prisa por pensar es mucha

There are people
Who no longer listen
Because their rush to think is too much

Es dura
La vida, es cierto
Pero sufren más algunos muertos

Life is hard, it’s true
But some dead ones suffer more

Yo prefiero estar bajo los ojos de Dios y así
Siempre caminar
En muchas miradas vive el alma de Dios y ahí
Me quiero mirar (¡eh!)

I prefer to be under the eyes of God, and this way
Always walk
In many gazes lives the soul of God, and there
I want to look at myself (hey!)

¿Qué pasa con nuestro mundo, qué pasa?

What’s wrong with our world, what’s wrong?

Dinero
Poder y vicios
Han hecho del hombre el paraíso

Money,
Power, and vices
Have made of man his paradise

Al ritmo
De lo prohibido
Va muriendo el que se vio vencido

To the rhythm
Of the forbidden,
The one who was defeated is dying

Yo nado
Contra corriente
Y aunque no soy de todos el más decente

I swim
Against the current,
And although I’m not the most decent of all

Trabajo
Con alma abierta
Así tenga que tocar todas las puertas

I work
With an open soul
Even if I have to knock on all the doors

Yo prefiero estar bajo los ojos de Dios y así
Siempre caminar
En muchas miradas vive el alma de Dios y ahí
Me quiero mirar

I prefer to be under the eyes of God, and this way
Always walk
In many gazes lives the soul of God, and there
I want to look at myself

Yo prefiero estar bajo los ojos de Dios y así
Siempre caminar
En muchas miradas vive el alma de Dios y ahí
Me quiero mirar (¡eh!)

I prefer to be under the eyes of God, and this way
Always walk.
In many gazes lives the soul of God, and there
I want to look at myself (hey!)
