10 Años No Es Nada
El Cuarteto de Nos
10 Years Is Nothing
Gardel sang: 20 years is nothing
The wrinkled forehead, the silvered temple
And if life is just a wink
Then ten years is less than nothing
In this time that passed between us
We gained some and lost others
We grew without thinking we were growing
We got here without really wanting to
In these ten years each one of us
Ate 200 chickens and 3000 biscuits
Drank a liter of syrup and 180 of alcohol
Poured twenty thousand mates and toasted a thousand times
And the voices that still resonate
From so many unfinished conversations
So many things to talk about
About what wasn't there and what is no longer
So many hours that evaporated into words
Everything was and everything is
And all that explains that
10 years is nothing
Ten years ago there was no Twitter or Facebook
In the FIFA ranking we were 16
There were no white taxis, they were only black
Ten years ago you were ten years younger
So much water has passed under the bridge
Three popes and three presidents have passed
The debt was paid in 120 installments
100 torrents of shouts of: Second Ball
And the voices that still resonate
From so many unfinished conversations
So many things to talk about
About what wasn't there and what is no longer
So many hours that evaporated into words
Everything was and everything is
And all that explains that
10 years is nothing
