Crippled Child

Un hogar, siempre he querido un hogarA home, I've always wanted a home
Siempre he querido un hogar propio,I've always wanted a home of my own,
Siempre he querido un hogar.I've always wanted a home.

Una esposa, con ojos verdesA wife, with eyes of green
Y piel blanca suave,And soft white skin,
Para darme un hijo.To bear me a child.
Siempre he querido un hijo.I've always wanted a child

Un hijo, que sea bueno y fuerteA child, who is good and strong
Que nunca se equivoqueThat would never go wrong
Siempre he querido un hijo.I've always wanted a child

Estuve presente en el nacimiento de mi hijo,I was present at my childs birth,
Estuve allí, para verlo abrir sus ojosI was there, to see him open his eyes
Siempre he querido un hijo.I always wanted a child.

Su espalda, su espalda es áspera.His back, his back is coarse.
Y sus piernas están torcidas,And his legs are bent,
Me acerqué a mi esposa.I've gone over to my wife.

Me has dado al hijo equivocadoYou've given me the wrong child
No quiero que muera en el hogar que poseoI don't want him to die in the home that I own
No quiero que mueraI don't want him to die
No quiero que muera,I don't want him to die,
En el hogar que poseo.In the home that I own.
