The Painted Face (feat. Araca La Cana)

La Cara Pintada (part. Araca La Cana)

The painted faceLa cara pintada
Like a rainbow, has many carnivals and today he leavesComo un arcoíris, tiene muchos carnavales y hoy se va
The time has come to departLlegó la hora de partir
The rest of old age has arrivedLlegó el descanso de la edad

Today the veteranHoy el veterano
With his face painted in the colors of February says goodbyeDe cara pintada con colores de febrero dice adiós
The murga embraces his songLa murga abraza su canción
The farewell of his voiceLa despedida de su voz

The stars shineBrillan las estrellas
And eyes shine with emotionY brillan los ojos de emoción
And the neighborhood has comeY ha venido el barrio
And the people have come to see his farewellY ha venido el pueblo a ver su adiós

And there, in the front rowY allá, en primera fila
There is a kid dreaming of a songHay un gurí soñando una canción
Dreaming of being a murguistaSoñando ser murguista
Just like his fatherIgual como su padre
The one who never unpainted his faceEl que nunca su cara despintó

And the painted faceY la cara pintada
Looks at him from insideLo mira desde adentro
And goes off lyricY se sale de letra
And invites him to come upY lo invita a subir

Come kid, sing with your dadVení gurí, cantá con tu papá
The one from the murga, the one who is leavingEl de la murga, el que se va
The one who leaves you his placeEl que te deja su lugar

Come, that carnival never diesVení que nunca muere el carnaval
Come, kid, that I'm leavingVení gurí, que yo me voy
But you're here to fightPero estás vos para luchar

Come, kid, bring your youthVení gurí, traé tu juventud
We need your songNos hace falta tu canción
For the family's futurePara el futuro familiar

Come, kid, sing with your dad (come, kid, sing with your dad)Vení gurí, cantá con tu papá (vení gurí, cantá con tu papá)
Come, that I take off my makeup for you (come, that I take off my makeup for you)Vení que me despinto para vos (vení que me despinto para vos)
Come (come, come, come)Vení (vení, vení, vení)
You are the voiceVos sos la voz
Of the Uruguay (of the Uruguay, of the Uruguay)Del Uruguay (del Uruguay, del Uruguay)

And the kid, tremblingY el gurí temblando
Climbs onto the stage and stands on the side of loveSe sube al tablado y se pone en el costado del amor
Thunderous applause fliesVuela un aplauso atronador
A life flies between the two of themVuela una vida entre los dos

The painted faceLa cara pintada
Slowly lifts its emotionLevanta despacio su emoción
And the hand seeksY la mano busca
The cheek full of colorLa mejilla llena de color

And unpaints his faceY despinta su cara
As if he were unpainting his heartComo si despintara el corazón
And he paints the kidY lo pinta al botija
With four red fingersCon cuatro dedos rojos
And leaves, wiping away a large tearY se va manoteando un lagrimón

And that painted kidY aquel gurí pintado
Follows him from behindLe sigue las espaldas
And from his soul comes forthY le sale del alma
The voice that saysLa voz que dice así

Come, dad, sing with your kidVení papá, cantá con tu gurí
Come, there is never a goodbyeVení que nunca hay un adiós
Come, there is people, there is a futureVení que hay pueblo, hay porvenir

Come, your place is always hereVení que siempre acá está tu lugar
We can never forgetJamás podremos olvidar
Veterans like youLos veteranos como vos

Come, I'll follow your songVení que te persigo la canción
We need your warmthNos hace falta tu calor
Alongside the popular murgaJunto a la murga popular

Come, dad, sing with your kid (come, dad, sing with your kid)Vení papá, cantá con tu gurí (vení papá, cantá con tu gurí)
Come, I'm painted by your age (come, I'm painted by your age)Vení que estoy pintado por tu edad (vení que estoy pintado por tu edad)
Come (come, come, come)Vení (vení, vení, vení)
It's the two of usSomos los dos
The Uruguay (the Uruguay, the Uruguay, the Uruguay)El Uruguay (el Uruguay, el Uruguay, el Uruguay)
