Carpintero Solitario
Grupo Alegría
Lonely Carpenter
Spoken: 'just like Saint Joseph
He carved and shaped the wood
This song with much affection
For many like him
Alim and Agusto Bernardillo
And the group Alegría...'
Lonely carpenter, without love, without hope
If the homeland helped him, he would rejoice in heaven
With love, he would give blessings to life
Contemplating his destiny, he lives alone suffering...
From his eyes I saw
Tears that keep bleeding
If he sleeps, he keeps crying
If he wakes up, he keeps crying
'Sad and poor carpenter giving blessings to life'
How sad everything is, his unhappy life
Because he has shown himself, without luck, without blessing
Here is the poor carpenter, suffering like Christ
Waiting for the eviction, the sentence of his death...
From his eyes I saw
Tears that keep bleeding
If he sleeps, he keeps crying
If he wakes up, he keeps crying
