Pescador y Guitarrero

Fisherman and Guitarist

Pescador y Guitarrero

Fisherman of the Paraná waiting for a bite of dreamsPescador del Paraná que espera pique de sueños
While the river takes away your pulse as a guitaristMientras el río se lleva tu pulso de guitarrero
I've seen you at dawn with bait and gearYo te he visto en la alborada com carnadas y aparejos
And a whistle between your lips that follows you like a dogY un silbido entre los lábios que te siguem como um perro

The water girl has hair made of scalesLa niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera
And a tear that dampens the braids of her legendY uma lágrima que moja las trenzas de su leyenda
Life is also a river that keeps hitting the stonesLa vida también es río que vai golpeando las piedras
The water girl has hair made of scalesLa niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera

Your fishing guitar takes the shape of your sorrowsTua guitarra pescadora tem a forma de tuas penas
It's the hook that's stuck in your wooden mouthÉ o anzol que está cravado na tua boca de madeira
Fisherman of the Paraná, time is like a golden fishPescador do Paraná, o tempo é como um dourado
It slips through our fingers when we least expect itNos escapa pelas mãos quando menos esperamos

The water girl has hair made of scalesLa niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera
And a tear that dampens the braids of her legendY uma lágrima que moja las trenzas de su leyenda
Life is also a river that keeps hitting the stonesLa vida también es río que vai golpeando las piedras
The water girl has hair made of scalesLa niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera
