Balada Del Diablo y La Muerte - La Renga

Estaba el diablo mal parado

En la esquina de mi barrio

Ah donde dobla el viento

Y se cruzan los atajos

Al lado de l estaba la muerte

Con una botella en la mano

Me miraban de reojo

Y se rean por lo bajo

Entre dientes o a la muerte

Que deca, que deca as…

Ahaaa…

Cuntas se habr escapado

Como laucha por tirante

Y esta noche que no cuesta nada

Ni siquiera fatigarse

Podemos llevarnos un cordero

Con slo cruzar la calle

Yo me escond tras la niebla

Y mir al infinito

A ver si llegaba ese

Que nunca iba a venir

Estaba el diablo mal parado

En la esquina de mi barrio

Al lado de l estaba la muerte

Con una botella en la mano

(solo de guitarra)

Y temblando como una hoja

Me cruc para encararlos

Y les dije me parece que esta vez

Me dejaron bien plantado

Les ped fuego y del bolsillo

Saqu una rama pa’convidarlos

Y bajo un arbol del otoo

Nos quedamos chamullando

Me contaron de sus vidas

Su triunfos y sus fracasos

De que el mundo andaba loco

Y hasta el cielo fue comprado

Y ms miedo que ellos dos

Me daba el propio ser humano

Oh, oh, oh, oh…

Y yo ya no esperaba a nadie

Entre las brisas del aquellarre

El diablo y la muerte

Se me fueron amigando

Ah donde dobla el viento

Y se cruzan los atajos

Ah donde brilla la vida

En la esquina de mi barrio

De mi barrio…

De mi barrio…

Suerte !

Gabriel

The devil was in a bad way

In the corner of my neighborhood

Ah where the wind bends

And the shortcuts are crossed

Beside him was death

With a bottle in hand

They looked at me sideways

And they laugh under their breath

Through clenched teeth or to death

What was he saying, what was he saying like that…

Ahaha…

How many will have escaped

Like a fight for a brace

And tonight that costs nothing

Don't even get tired

we can take a lamb

Just by crossing the street

I hid behind the fog

And look at infinity

Let's see if that one came

that was never going to come

The devil was in a bad way

In the corner of my neighborhood

Beside him was death

With a bottle in hand

(Guitar solo)

And shaking like a leaf

I crossed to face them

And I told them it seems to me that this time

they left me well planted

I asked for fire and from my pocket

I took out a branch to invite them

And under an autumn tree

we stay chattering

They told me about their lives

His triumphs and his failures

That the world was crazy

And even heaven was bought

And more afraid than them two

He gave me the human being himself

Oh oh oh oh…

And I no longer waited for anyone

Between the breezes of the coven

The devil and death

They became friends with me

Ah where the wind bends

And the shortcuts are crossed

Ah where life shines

In the corner of my neighborhood

From my neighborhood…

From my neighborhood…

Luck !

Gabriel
