The street repeats its prices, its ice, and its open hand; the return does not change the act of walking on.

Lyrics

Original Spanish · Bolero

Translation · English

The street smells the same as yesterday.The juice seller shouts again,the chewing-gum boy is at his stall,the hand is still open.

I pass the same place.The boy looks up.I do not put my hand in my pocket.I keep walking.

The seller shouts the same price.The ice melts in the same way.A man asksand leaves without buying.

At the corner,the light takes longer than usual.People wait without crossing.A motorbike passes closeand leaves the smell of petrol.

The dog is still beneath the car.It does not lift its head.The hand is still open.Today a coin is stuckto the palm with sweat.I keep walking.

Original Spanish

La calle huele igual que ayer.El vendedor de jugo vuelve a gritar,el niño de los chicles está en su puesto,la mano sigue abierta.

Paso por el mismo sitio.El niño levanta la vista.No meto la mano en el bolsillo.Sigo caminando.

El vendedor grita el mismo precio.El hielo se derrite igual.Un hombre preguntay se va sin comprar.

En la esquina,el semáforo tarda más de lo normal.La gente espera sin cruzar.Una moto pasa cercay deja un olor a gasolina.

El perro sigue bajo el carro.No levanta la cabeza.La mano sigue abierta.Hoy hay una moneda pegadaa la palma por el sudor.Yo sigo caminando.
