Translation

Madrid sin ti no es tan Madrid

Madrid without you is not quite Madrid

Sin vivir en los tejados madrugadas sin cigarros

Without living on rooftops, early mornings without cigarettes

Y sin las lluvias de marzo

And without the rains of March

Que no nos dejan salir

That don't let us go out


Y he probado mil placebos

And I've tried a thousand placebos

Desde Tirso hasta el infierno

From Tirso to hell

Que se esconde tras las caras

That hides behind the faces

Que se parecen a ti

That resemble you


Casi me parece feo entrar al bigote del Greco

It almost seems ugly to enter El Greco's mustache

Sin que estés sentada ahí

Without you sitting there

Madrid sin ti no es tan Madrid

Madrid without you is not quite Madrid

Sin vivir dos meses ciego

Without living two months blind

Gastando solo lo que tengo

Spending only what I have

Rodeado de gente que detesto

Surrounded by people I detest

Para no pensar

Just to avoid thinking


Que si te dignaras a venir

That if you deigned to come

No seguiría tantas normas

I wouldn't follow so many rules

No me levantaría pronto

I wouldn't get up early

Igual pillaba un cáncer tonto

Maybe I'd catch a silly cancer

Igual me daba algún infarto

Maybe I'd have some heart attack

Por nuestras broncas sin fin

Because of our endless quarrels

Porque Madrid sin ti no están Madrid

Because Madrid without you is not Madrid


Sin ver el cielo en Corredera

Without seeing the sky on Corredera street

Sin hacer trampas por sistema

Without cheating by system

Sin acabar en sitios turbios

Without ending up in shady places

Sin congeniar con vagabundos

Without getting along with vagabonds

Sin vivir en los museos de los que no debimos salir

Without living in museums we shouldn't have left


Madrid sin ti no están Madrid

Madrid without you is not Madrid
