Translation

Eran 5 hermanos que decian quiero ir a las estrellas

There were 5 siblings who said, "I want to go to the stars"

Y los padres les decian que tal vez ellos irian

And their parents told them that maybe they would

Siempre que primero terminaran los deberes de la escuela

As long as they finished their school duties first


El primero no queria nada de eso

The first one didn't want anything of that

Solo las estrellas

Only the stars

Y las vio bien grandes cuando el padre

And he saw them very big when the father

(Atiendan el detalle) lo agarró a patadas

(Pay attention to the detail) kicked him

Y lo echó derecho viejo pa' la calle

And sent him straight, old man, to the street


El segundo se fue para hollywood a trabajar de mozo

The second went to Hollywood to work as a waiter

En un bar donde comian

In a bar where they ate

Siempre muchas de las grandes estrellas de cine

Always many of the great movie stars

Como Linda Blair y como Charles Bronson

Like Linda Blair and like Charles Bronson


El tercero se hizo comisario y le pusieron una estrella

The third became a sheriff, and they gave him a star

Reluciente en la solapa de su clasica chaqueta

Shining on the lapel of his classic jacket

Y con el tiempo se olvido de las estrellas y de los planetas

And over time, he forgot about the stars and the planets


El cuarto de los hermanos estudio para ser arquitecto

The fourth of the brothers studied to be an architect

Y gracias a tres botellas, consiguió salir electo

And thanks to three bottles, he managed to be elected

En la licitación para el proyecto

In the bidding for the project

de un hotel de 5 estrellas

of a 5-star hotel


El menor el quinto era distinto

The youngest, the fifth, was different

no queria, no podia

He didn't want, he couldn't

no sabia conformarse con estrellas de mentira

He didn't know how to settle for fake stars

y hoy acaba de mandar una postal desde las tres Marias

And today, he just sent a postcard from the Three Marys

Eran cinco hermanos que decian quiero ir a las estrellas

There were five siblings who said, "I want to go to the stars"
