La Basurita

The Little Trash
I'm the foam of the sea,
I'm a sad lament,
I'm just a little trash,
I'm the little trash that the wind drags along.
When I came to this world,
I was born crying,
And since then I've kept crying, I've kept crying.
I'm like the bird that keeps flying,
That keeps flying,
Through a desert,
Through a desert,
Searching for the east, I found the case,
I found the case,
Looking for happiness,
Looking for happiness, I found the pain.
I've never had,
Anyone to pity me,
I'm just a little feather,
I'm the little trash that the air carries.
Oh, how much bitterness,
I feel when I remember,
When I was a child,
There wasn't even enough water to baptize me.
I'm like the bird that keeps flying,
That keeps flying,
Through a desert,
Through a desert,
Searching for the east, I found the case,
I found the case,
Looking for happiness,
Looking for happiness, I found the pain.
