Un Salto Adelante
Jerry Velázquez
A Leap Forward
I have to jump, take the lead
Avoid the deadly sword
Steal only what is vital
That is to say everything
Mock the mandarins
There is no more, it's not a game
Prove that I don't have a penny
Rat! Thief! Lazy! Take them!
We have to be smarter
Let's end their path!
What an insinuation, I have to accept
That I only had one friend, God!
Oh! The boy causes so much sorrow
Turned into a great thief
Blame the parents, even though I have none
As for living, I steal to eat
I'll tell you another time
Jump, dodge the blows
Flee from my doom
Use a false name in every action
Defeat those who defame me
Triumph over the crowd
It's better to hide in a corner
After him!
Vandal!
Abu!
Scandal!
Calm down for a moment
I think it's very exciting
As for living, I steal to eat
And I better go now
No!
Mock those who follow me
Leave everyone behind
Dodge, fearlessly, dangers
Fly, goodbye friends
Here I go!
And if you want a good landing
I just have to jump
