Don Quijote (Spanish version)
Don Quixote
Los libros de antaño llegaban al techo
In days of old the books reached the cieling 1
Y una triste figura entre ellos
And the Sad Face was among them all 2
La luz de la vela la pieza* alumbraba
The light of the lamp in the room filled
Su mundo de sueños se escapaba

La realidad ya lejos estaba
And then reality was far away
Partió después a vivir su propia fantasía
Later on, he left to go live his in fantasies
Don Quijote, Don Quijote
Don Quixote, Don Quixote
Entre sombras no se puede vivir

De tu mundo ya tienes que salir

Don Quijote, Don Quijote

Contra el viento no se puede luchar

Don Quijote, Don Quijote
Don Quixote, Don Quixote
Deja de vivir con tu soledad

Por grandes caminos su triste figura buscando siempre aventuras

En sus pensamientos, rescato en el agua

Su Dulcinea encantada

La realidad mil veces no engaña (?)

Monta su jaca y parte al campo a batallar
