Canción Del Elegido

Song Of The Chosen One

Canción Del Elegido

Whenever a story is madeSiempre que se hace una historia
We talk about an old man, a child or ourselvesSe habla de un viejo, de un niño o de sí
But my story is difficultPero mi historia es difícil
I'm not going to talk to you about a common manNo voy a hablarles de un hombre común

I will do the story of a being from another worldHaré la historia de un ser de otro mundo
Of a galaxy animalDe un animal de galaxia
It is a story that has to doEs una historia que tiene que ver
With the course of the Milky WayCon el curso de la Vía Láctea

It's a buried storyEs una historia enterrada
It is about a being that comes from nothingEs sobre un ser de la nada

He was born from a stormNació de una tormenta
In the Sun of a night of the penultimate monthEn el Sol de una noche del penúltimo mes
He went from planet to planetFue de planeta en planeta
Searching for drinking waterBuscando agua potable

Maybe looking for life or looking for deathQuizás buscando la vida o buscando la muerte
That is never knownEso nunca se sabe
Maybe looking for silhouettes or something similarQuizás buscando siluetas o algo semejante
That it was adorableQue fuera adorable

Or at least lovableO por lo menos querible
Kissable, kindBesable, amable

He discovered that King Solomon's minesÉl descubrió que las minas del rey Salomón
They were in heavenSe hallaban en el cielo
And not in burning AfricaY no en el África ardiente
How people thoughtComo pensaba la gente

But the stones are coldPero las piedras son frías
And he was interested in warmth and joyY le interesaban calor y alegrías
The jewels had no soulLas joyas no tenían alma
They were just mirrors, bright colorsSolo eran espejos, colores brillantes

And finally, he went down to warY al fin, bajó hacia la guerra
Sorry! I meant to the earth¡Perdón! Quise decir a la tierra

He knew the story in one fell swoopSupo la historia de un golpe
He felt crushed crystals in his headSintió en su cabeza cristales molidos
And he understood that the warY comprendió que la guerra
It was the peace of the futureEra la paz del futuro

The most terrible thing is learned immediatelyLo más terrible se aprende enseguida
And the beautiful costs us our livesY lo hermoso nos cuesta la vida
The last time I saw him leaveLa última vez lo vi irse
Between smoke and shrapnel, happy and nakedEntre humo y metralla, contento y desnudo

He was killing scoundrelsIba matando canallas
With his cannon of the futureCon su cañón de futuro
He was killing scoundrelsIba matando canallas
With his cannon of the futureCon su cañón de futuro
