Original text with translation
Joaquín Sabina
Mañana cuando era tan pequeño
Por el Acantilado del Obispo caí
Persiguiendo un pájaro sin dueño
Y aterricé en un polvorín
De arenas movedizas
Bajo un cielo de betún
Caracolas que agonizan
Sin decir ni mu
Cuando el gallo a sueldo de la madrugada
Llegó con su kikirikí
Desperté soñando que viajaba
Desnudo con un maletín
De arenas movedizas
Bajo un cielo de alquiler
Alfileres que agonizan
Antes de nacer
A mi cita fui pero el horizonte
Se había cansado de esperar
Me llamó san Pedro por mi nombre
Y no le quise contestar
Y arenas movedizas
Bajo un cielo de almidón
Paquebotes que aterrizan
Sin pedir perdón
Arenas movedizas
Bajo un cielo regaliz
Ascensores que agonizan
Por la cicatriz
Tomorrow when I was so little
By the Bishop's Cliff I fell
Chasing an ownerless bird
And I landed in a powder keg
of quicksand
Under a sky of bitumen
Snails that are dying
without saying a word
When the rooster paid at dawn
He arrived with his kikiriki
I woke up dreaming that I was traveling
Naked with a briefcase
of quicksand
Under a rented sky
dying pins
Before being born
I went to my appointment but the horizon
He was tired of waiting
Saint Peter called me by my name
And I didn't want to answer
and quicksand
Under a starchy sky
packet boats landing
without apologizing
quicksand
Under a licorice sky
agonizing elevators
for the scar
