Las cuarenta

Andrés Cepeda Andrés Cepeda

The Forty

With the cigarette of life
pressed between the lips
the gaze cloudy and cold
and the walk a bit slow
turned the corner of the neighborhood
drunk already with memories
as if pouring out a poison
this is what was heard singing

Old street of my neighborhood
where I took the first step
I return to you with the deck difficult to shuffle
with a dagger in my chest
with my dream shattered
that broke in an embrace
that gave him the truth

I learned all the good
I learned all the bad
I know of the kiss that is bought
I know of the kiss that is given
of the friend who is a friend
as long as it suits him
and I know that with a lot of money
one is worth much more

I learned that in this life
you have to cry if others cry
and if the group laughs
one must laugh
not even think wrong, why?
if you still live
and also run the risk
of being called a fool.

The time I wanted to be good
they laughed in my face
when I shouted an injustice
force made me shut up
hope was my lover
disappointment my friend
every card has a counter
and every counter is given.

Today I don't even believe in myself
everything is a trick, everything is false
and he who is higher
is the same as the others
so it shouldn't surprise you
if one night drunk
you saw me walking arm in arm
with someone I shouldn't be with

I learned all the good
I learned all the bad
I know of the kiss that is bought
I know of the kiss that is given
of the friend who is a friend
as long as it suits him
and I know that with a lot of money
one is worth much more

I learned that in this life
you have to cry if others cry
and if the group laughs
one must laugh
not even think wrong, why?
if you still live
and also run the risk
of being called a fool.

of being called a fool.
