Adoquines En Tu Cielo, Rosario

Cobblestones in Your Sky, Rosario

Adoquines En Tu Cielo, Rosario

Cobblestones in your skyAdoquines en tu cielo
And a streetcar stuck in the riverY un tranvia encallado en el río
The past frozenEl pasado congelado
In your name as a womanEn tu nombre de mujer
Rosario, you're like a girlfriend we once hadRosario eres como una novia que uno tuvo
In a port where we wanted to be the captainEn un puerto donde quiso ser timonel

Emigrants and exilesEmigrantes y emigrados
Stowaways biting dust in mailboxesPolizones que en buzones muerden polvo
The future slips awayEl futuro se te escurre
In the hands of your pastEn las manos de tu ayer
Rosario, you have the body of a loverRosario tienes cuerpo de amante
That one feels still enjoysQue uno siente que aun goza
Even though afraid of agingAunque tema envejecer

On your coast of sirensEn tu costa de sirenas
Confused Ulysses gasp for airLos ulises confundidos piden aire
Your looted present begs for bread to growTu presente saqueado pide pan para crecer
Rosario, you've dressed as a motherRosario te haz vestido de madre
Who cooks what's leftQue cocina lo que queda
To keep from fading awayPara no desfallecer
Rosario, you're going to be that womanRosario vas a ser esa hembra
That no man can dominateQue no hay macho que domine
With a stick or even twoCon un palo ni con dos

RosarioRosario
You're like those filliesEres como esas potras
That calm down when they feelQue se amansan cuando sienten
That they're treated with loveQue las tratan con amor
Cobblestones in your skyAdoquines en tu cielo
Cobblestones in your skyAdoquines en tu cielo
