Calle abarrotada, pies ocupados pasan junto a élCrowded street, busy feet hustle by him
Compradores del centro, la Navidad está cercaDowntown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
Allí él se sienta solo en la aceraThere he sits all alone on the sidewalk
Esperando que no lo ignoresHoping that you won't pass him by

¿Deberías detenerte? Mejor no, muy ocupadoShould you stop? Better not, much too busy
Estás apurado, ¡cómo vuela el tiempo!You're in a hurry, my how times does fly
A lo lejos suena la risaIn the distance the ringing of laughter
Y en medio de la risa él lloraAnd in the midst of the laughter he cries
