Me parece una injusticia
It seems to me an injustice
Estar preso señor juez
Being in prison sir judge
Por tirarle una pedrada al presidente
For throwing a stone at the president
Sé muy bien que en puntería nunca me he sacado un diez
I know very well that in marksmanship I have never gotten a ten
Y el objetivo no era darle a ese teniente
And the goal was not to give that lieutenant
Mi pedrada fue un rayón en el blindaje
My stone was a scratch on the armor
En la pena debe usted considerar
In grief you must consider
Que mi piedra pretendía con su viaje
That my stone intended with its trip
Mi recurso ciudadano de poderme expresar
My citizen resource to be able to express myself
Contra el nuevo inquilino de casa presidencial
Against the new tenant of the presidential house
Con sus sueños peregrinos de inscribirse al carnaval
With his pilgrim dreams of enrolling in the carnival
Ese sueño que comienza cuando empieza a terminar
That dream that begins when it begins to end
Sabe cuantos sueños rotos caben en urnas de cartón
Know how many broken dreams fit in cardboard urns
Para que cuentan los votos si se repite la ecuación
What do the votes count for if the equation is repeated?
Y si le escribo alguna carta a la utopía
And if I write a letter to utopia
Y de remitente mi nombre y dirección
And my name and address as sender
Seria como escribirle a la melancolía
It would be like writing to melancholy
Y entregarme a la resignación
And surrender to resignation
A cuantos peces flacos ha mandado usted a guardar
How many skinny fish have you sent to save
Como este que hoy le habla señoría
Like this one who speaks to you today your honor
A cuantos peces gordos ha dejado de juzgar
How many big shots has he stopped judging
Para darle de comer a la ironía
To feed the irony
Mi pedrada es otra raya para el tigre
My stone is another line for the tiger
Inocente como el llanto de un patojo
Innocent as the cry of a duck
Si le toco el corazón déjeme libre
If I touch your heart, set me free
Si le tocan la razón me pinta en rojo
If they touch his reason, he paints me red
Mientras el nuevo inquilino de casa presidencial
While the new tenant of the presidential house
Con sus sueños peregrinos de inscribirse al carnaval
With his pilgrim dreams of enrolling in the carnival
De ese sueño que comienza cuando empieza a terminar
Of that dream that begins when it begins to end
Sabe cuantos sueños rotos caben en urnas de cartón
Know how many broken dreams fit in cardboard urns
Para que cuentan los votos si se repite la ecuación
What do the votes count for if the equation is repeated?
Y si le escribo alguna carta a la utopía
And if I write a letter to utopia
Y de remitente mi nombre y dirección
And my name and address as sender
Seria como escribirle a la melancolía
It would be like writing to melancholy
Y entregarme a la resignación
And surrender to resignation
Me parece una injusticia estar preso señor juez
It seems an injustice to me to be in prison, Mr. Judge
Y ni siquiera haberle dado a mi objetivo
And not even having hit my target
