A La Sombra de Un León

Joaquín Sabina Joaquín Sabina

In the Shadow of a Lion

He arrived
With his wooden sword
And clown shoes
To eat the city
He bought
Luck at Doña Manolita's
And passing by Cibeles
He wanted to invite her to dance
A waltz
Like two lovers
And fall asleep cuddled
In the shadow of a lion
How are you?
I am alone and without a husband
Thank you for coming
To warm my heart
Yesterday
At dinner time
They discovered that number sixteen was missing
Perhaps
Disguised as a nurse
He escaped from Ciempozuelos
With his paper hood
To his favorite statue
He stole an engagement ring
From El Corte Inglés
With it
On his finger the next day
I saw the agent's girlfriend
Who came to arrest him
He fell
Like a bird from the tree
When his lips of marble
Forced him to let go
A taxi driver passing by
Remained silent as he saw
Cibeles starting to cry
And crashed into the central bank
