There was a man in distressC'était un homme en déroute
He was a brother, no doubtC'était un frère, sans doute
He had no home, no placeIl n'avait ni lieu, ni place
And on the roads of exileEt sur les routes de l'exil
On the paths, in the squaresSur les sentiers, sur les places
He spoke to me of his townIl me parlait de sa ville

I am a sincere manYo soy un hombre sincero
From where the palm tree growsDe donde crece la palma
And before I die, I wantY antes de morirme, quiero
To share my verses from the soulEchar mis versos del alma
My verse is a light greenMi verso es de un verde claro
And a bright crimsonY de un carmín encendido

My verse is a wounded deerMi verso es un ciervo herido
Searching for shelter in the hillsQue busca en el monte amparo
With the poor of the earthCon los pobres de la tierra
I want to try my luckQuiero yo mi suerte echar
The stream of the mountainsEl arroyo de la sierra
Brings me more joy than the seaMe complace más que el mar

I have all the land leftIl me reste toute la terre
But I didn't ask for so muchMais, je n'en demandais pas autant
When I crossed the borderQuand j'ai passé la frontière
There was nothing aheadIl n'y avait plus rien devant
I went from stop to stopJ'allais d'escale en escale
Far from my homelandLoin de ma terre natale
