LEONARD COHEN: BIRD ON THE WIREPÁJARO EN EL CABLE DE LUZ
  
Like a bird on the wireComo un pájaro en el cable de luz,
Like a drunk in a midnight choircomo un borracho en un coro de medianoche
I have tried in my way to be free.he intentado a mi manera ser libre.
Like a worm on a hookComo un gusano en un anzuelo,
Like a knight from some old-fashioned bookcomo un caballero de un libro pasado de moda
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.he guardado todos mis lazos para tí.
  
If I have been unkindSi he sido poco amable,
I hope that you can just let it go byespero que puedas dejarlo pasar.
If I have been untrue,Si he sido falso
I hope you know it was never to you.espero que sepas que nunca lo fui contigo.
  
Like a baby stillbornComo un bebé nacido muerto,
Like a beast with his horncomo una bestia con su cuerno
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.he destrozado a todo el que vino por mí.
But I swear by this songPero juro por esta canción,
And by all that I have done wrongy por todo lo que he hecho mal
I will make it all up to thee.que te compensaré por ello.
  
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,Vi un mendigo apoyado en su muleta de madera,
He said to me, "You must not ask for so much."me dijo, "No debes pedir tanto",
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,y una bella mujer apoyada en su oscura puerta
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"me gritó, "Oye, ¿por qué no pedir más?"
  
Like a bird on the wireComo un pájaro en el cable de luz,
Like a drunk in a midnight choircomo un borracho en un coro de medianoche
I have tried in my way to be free.he intentado a mi manera ser libre.
