The Father

Café Tacvba

El Padre

Fue ese dia que desperto
cuando se dio cuenta
que se convirtio
en lo que mas a el le molestaba.
De repente descubrio
que estaba pensando
igualito que su padre
en la casa de antaño.
Desde entonces al hablar
se descubre ideas
que apenas ayer
no estaban aun en su cabeza.
Ahora prefiere callar
hasta acostrumbrarse a
que la voz que le saldra
es la misma que su padre.
Corre hacia el espejo
mirate esa arruga
te estas convirtiendo
en quien mas odio a ti te da.
La gente lo mira igual
y el se siente otro
descubriendo el mundo entero
desde otros ojos.
Tienen miedo que al final
el dia de mañana
de este odio y este cambio
no recuerde nada.

The Father

It was that day he woke up
when he realized
that he had become
what bothered him the most.
Suddenly he discovered
that he was thinking
just like his father
in the old house.
Since then when he speaks
he discovers ideas
that just yesterday
were not yet in his head.
Now he prefers to stay silent
to get used to
the voice that will come out
is the same as his father's.
He runs to the mirror
look at that wrinkle
you are becoming
the one who gives you the most hatred.
People look at him the same
and he feels different
discovering the whole world
from other eyes.
They are afraid that in the end
tomorrow
from this hatred and this change
he won't remember anything.
