Lyrics " Arenas Movedizas "

Original text with translation

Arenas Movedizas

Joaquín Sabina

Original text

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

Song translation

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
