Como Un Duende

Nacer nunca pido y al pedir nadie le dio
Su cuerpo son los huesos que la tierra se comió
El hambre y el dolor a el le sobran ya
Su mente es como un globo vuela y vuela sin parar
Es como un duende parece duende
Niños sin infancia y sin pastel
Es como un duende parece duende
Vive entre basura no parece de verdad

Es niño de piel gris
Sin nadie, sin hogar
Durmiendo en las aceras despertando sin soñar
El tiene siglos ya y todo sigue igual
Como es un niño pobre su tristeza es muy normal
Es como un duende parece duende
Es niño sin infancia y sin pastel
Es como un duende parece duende
Parece fantasía pero es niño de verdad

No tiene donde estar
Pero si a dónde ir
Su única fortuna son sus sueños de papel
Le pide hoy al Sol que el día venga ya
Es hombre y no un duende, pide un mundo nada más
Tan solo un mundo
Un solo mundo
Que le calme el deseo nada más
Tan solo un mundo
Un solo mundo
Nos tienen divididos pero el mundo gira igual

Es un niño como otro cualquiera
Solo que sin una linda escuela
Dale un libro y tocará una estrella
Que será
Es como un duende parece duende
Dale de comer y pensará
Es como un duende parece duende
Dejalo soñar y una estrella alcanzará
Es como un duende parece duende
Es niño sin infancia y sin pastel
Es como un duende parece duende
Enseñale a leer y este mundo cambiara
Cambiara, cambiara, cambiara

Like an Elf

I never asked to be born and when I asked, no one gave it to me
His body is the bones that the earth ate
He already has enough hunger and pain
His mind is like a balloon, it flies and flies without stopping
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Children without childhood and without cake
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Living among garbage doesn't seem real

He is a gray-skinned boy
No one, no home
Sleeping on the sidewalks waking up without dreaming
He's been around for centuries and everything is still the same
As he is a poor child, his sadness is very normal
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
He is a child without childhood and without cake
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
It seems like a fantasy but it's a real boy

He has nowhere to be
But where to go?
His only fortune is his paper dreams
Today he asks the Sun for the day to come soon
He is a man and not a goblin, he asks for nothing more than a world
Just one world
One world
Let nothing else calm your desire
Just one world
One world
They have us divided but the world turns the same

He is a child like any other
Only without a nice school
Give him a book and he will touch a star
What will be
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Feed him and he will think
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Let him dream and a star will reach
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
He is a child without childhood and without cake
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Teach him to read and this world will change
It will change, it will change, it will change
