Pescador y Guitarrero
Os Serranos
Lyrics
Translation
Pescador del Paraná que espera pique de sueños
Fisherman of the Paraná who waits for the bite of dreams
Mientras el río se lleva tu pulso de guitarrero
While the river carries away your pulse as a guitar player
Yo te he visto en la alborada com carnadas y aparejos
I have seen you at dawn with bait and tackle
Y un silbido entre los lábios que te siguem como um perro
And a whistle between your lips that follows you like a dog
La niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera
The water girl has scales in her hair
Y uma lágrima que moja las trenzas de su leyenda
And a tear that wets the braids of her legend
La vida también es río que vai golpeando las piedras
Life is also a river that beats against the stones
La niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera
The water girl has scales in her hair
Tua guitarra pescadora tem a forma de tuas penas
Your fishing guitar has the shape of your sorrows
É o anzol que está cravado na tua boca de madeira
It is the hook that is stuck in your wooden mouth
Pescador do Paraná, o tempo é como um dourado
Fisherman of the Paraná, time is like a golden fish
Nos escapa pelas mãos quando menos esperamos
It slips through our hands when we least expect
La niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera
The water girl has scales in her hair
Y uma lágrima que moja las trenzas de su leyenda
And a tear that wets the braids of her legend
La vida también es río que vai golpeando las piedras
Life is also a river that beats against the stones
La niña del água tiene de escamas la cabellera
The water girl has scales in her hair
