porque te dicen poeta
y tienes un mundo aparte,
más allá de las estrellas
You think you are different,
because they call you a poet
and you have a world apart,
beyond the stars

De tanto mirar la luna,
ya nada sabes mirar;
eres como un pobre ciego,
que no sabe a dónde va.
From staring at the moon so much,
you no longer know how to see;
you are like a poor blind man,
who doesn't know where he's going.

Vete a mirar los mineros;
los hombres en el trigal
y cántale a los que luchan
por un pedazo de pan.
Go and look at the miners;
the men in the wheat field
and sing to those who struggle
for a piece of bread.

Poeta de tiernas rimas:
vete a vivir a la selva
y aprenderás muchas cosas
del hachero y sus miserias.

go live in the jungle
and you will learn many things
from the woodcutter and his miseries.

Vive junto con el pueblo;
no lo mires desde afuera;
que lo primero es ser hombre
y lo segundo, poeta

don't watch them from the outside;
because the first thing is to be a man
and the second, a poet
