La Primerica Helá

The First Frost

La Primerica Helá

Hey, you, you, you, boyEh, tú, tú, tú, chiquillo

May money have a bad endMal fin tengan los dinero'
And the reason to spend itY el motivo pa' gastarlo'
May it have a bad end and be emptyQue mal fin tenga y este vacío
And not being able to fill itY el no poder llenarlo

Being a picture of sadnessSiendo un cuadro de tristeza
That leans against this wallQue se arrima a esta paré
I'm content with your gazeMe conformo con que tu mirada
Being my resemblanceSea mi parecé

I haven't gotten involved with anyoneYo no me he metío con nadie
Nor have I lied to anyoneNi a nadie le he mentío yo
If I don't get involved where I'm calledSi no me meto donde me llaman
You count where you shouldn'tEchas cuentas donde no

But the problem is getting involvedPero el problema es meterse
I don't want to do it anymoreYo no quiero hacerlo má'
May God protect those who can no longerQue Dios proteja al que ya no puede
Heal from thisCurarse de este ma'

We go out with the first frostSalimos con la primerica helá
With the frost and the hair backCon la escarcha y el pelo p'atrá'
The old ladies have been up for an hourLas viejas llevan una hora levantá'
I wouldn't change my street for anythingMi calle no la cambio por na'

We go out with the first frostSalimos con la primerica helá
With the throat already burstCon la garganta ya reventá
At night some corner is pissedDe noche alguna esquina está meá
I wouldn't change my street for anythingMi calle no la cambio por na'

And here one gets upY aquí uno se levanta
Works like the mostTrabaja como el que má'
From four to five takes a little napDe cuatro a cinco se echa un ratito
To sing at nightPa' por la noche cantá

Andalusia is burningY Andalucía está ardiendo
And Spain is going to burnY España se va a quemar
Head held high, firm stepCabeza alta, pasito firme
Slowly and in tuneDespacio y al compá'

What mystery hides¿Qué misterio es el que oculta
The closed mouthLa boca que está cerrá
That sometimes holds so many liesQue a vece' encierra tanta mentira
And sometimes so much truth?Y a veces tanta verdá?

Andalusians, rise upY andaluces, levantaos
Ask for land and freedomPedid tierra y libertá
We are the mirror where everyone looksSomo' el espejo onde to' se miran

But I am no longer mePero yo ya no soy yo
Nor is my street my street anymoreNi mi calle es ya mi calle
Because times change themPorque los tiempos le' cambian
And even real peopleY hasta a las personas reale'

But I am no longer mePero yo ya no soy yo
Nor is my street my street anymoreNi mi calle es ya mi calle
Because times change themPorque los tiempos le' cambian
And even real peopleY hasta a las personas reale'

Today the Darro sounds and even the San NicolásHoy suena el Darro y hasta el San Nicolás
Long live my neighborhood and long live GranadaViva mi barrio y viva Graná
