Niño Pobre

Poor Child

Niño Pobre

Wanders the streets aloneVaga por las calles solo
Looking for a friendAnda en busca de un amigo
But no one comes closePero nadie se le arrima
They know he's a Poor ChildSaben que es un Niño Pobre

He has a sad little faceTiene la carita triste
No longer believes in the Three Wise MenNo cree más en Reyes Magos
So many years they failed himTantos años le fallaron
His heart made of clayA su corazón de barro

Poor parents, poor brotherPadres pobre, hermano pobre
Poor uncle, poor grandparentsTío pobre, abuelos pobre
Poor teacher, poor schoolMaestro pobre, escuela pobre
Oh, what a Poor ChildAy ay ay que Niño Pobre

Oh, don't cry Poor Child, it's not manlyAy, no llores Niño Pobre no es de hombres
Oh, don't cry, everyone will laughAy, no llores, todos, todos se reirán
Oh, if you cry too much, they will harm youAy, si lloras mucho mal a ti te harán
Poor ChildNiño Pobre

(Recited)(Recitado)
How different the world would be for youQue distinto seria el mundo para vos
If on every street, on every cornerSi en cada calle, en cada esquina
Someone reached out a hand to youAlguien te tendiera una mano
How different the world would be for youQue distinto seria el mundo para vos
And your heart of clayY tu corazón de barro
Would believe again in those old Three Wise MenVolvería a creer de nuevo en esos viejos Reyes Magos
How different the world would be for youQue distinto seria el mundo para vos
If you hadn't been bornDe no haber sido, de no haber nacido
