Lyrics

Español

Hoy vuelvo por fin, otra vez a tu lado, Feliz como nunca, con ansias de hogar, Los chicos ya saben qué es lo que ha pasado Y ahora hay un padre que pueden mostrar. Mirá que regalos compré para todos, Juguetes y ropas, también un licor, Y un velo de novia más lindo que el cielo Pues sé que la nena, ya tiene un amor. Mirá... Nuestros cachorros como ayer. Mirá... Cómo me abrazan otra vez. Quién sabe cuántas veces Precisaron mi calor, Y en esa desnudez Me habrán llamado, con su llanto. Hoy, tengo la dicha de mi hogar Y sé, que vos sufriste más que yo, Vení, poné la mesa y escondé ese lagrimón No llores, volvamos a empezar. Dichoso el que puede vivir sin rencores Dichoso el que un día, aprendió a perdonar, A mí me perdieron falsos y traidores Y sólo hay un Dios, que me puede juzgar. Con sombras de cárcel lavé mi pecado Si acaso la cárcel, lo puede lavar, Los jueces de mármol, nunca comprendieron Que a veces la vida, te obliga a matar.

English · machine translation

Today I'm back at last, back by your side, Happy as ever, longing for home, The kids already know what's happened. And now there's a father they can show. Look what presents I bought for everyone, Toys and clothes, also a liquor, And a bridal veil prettier than the sky. For I know that the baby, she already has a love. Look... Our puppies like yesterday. Look... How they hug me again. Who knows how many times They needed my warmth, And in that nakedness They must have called me, with their cry. Today, I have the joy of my home And I know that you suffered more than me, Come, set the table and hide that tearfulness. Don't cry, let's start again. Happy is he who can live without resentment Blessed is he who, one day, learned to forgive, I was lost to the false and treacherous. And there is only one God, who can judge me. With shadows of prison I washed away my sin If prison can wash it away, The judges of marble, they never understood That sometimes life forces you to kill.
