Tramp

Vagabundo

Tramp

El sol estaba bajo, y la sombra era fría,The sun was low, and the shadow was cold,
En el rostro pálido y arrugado,On the pale drawn face, that was wrinkled and old,
Un abrigo de periódico, colgando suelto alrededor de su cuello,A newspaper coat, hanging loose 'round his throat,
Y los zapatos en sus pies, tiras de cuero atadas con cuerda,And the shoes on his feet, strips of leather tied up with rope,
Su cabello despeinado, y ojos que miraban fijamente,His uncombed hair, and eyes that would stare,
A la gente que pasaba, que no sabía o no le importabaAt the people passing by, who didn't know or didn't care

Coro:Chorus:
Este pobre anciano está completamente solo,This poor old man he's all alone,
No tiene dinero ni un hogar propio,He's got no money or no home of his own,
El callejón es su cocina,The back street's his kitchen,
La vereda es su salón,The footpath's his hall,
Y la tiza en la pared de ladrillo,And the chalk on the brick work,
Son las imágenes en su pared,Are the pictures on his wall,
Él recuesta su cabeza,He lays down his head,
En el pavimento que es su cama,On the pavement that's his bed,
Y cuando duerme, sus sueños se desvanecenAnd when he sleeps, his dreams fade away

Caminando por la calle, con las manos en su abrigo,He walks down the street, with his hands in his coat,
Mirando hacia abajo a sus pies, buscando un colilla para fumar,Looking down at his feet, for a dog-end he could smoke,
Pensando en comida, buena bebida y diversión,He thinks about food, good drinking and good fun,
Mientras busca entre los basureros, su vida casi terminadaAs he searches through the dustbins, his life almost done

Repetir Coro:Repeat Chorus:
