Solo, sin mucha prisa
Alone, without much rush
se le ve recorriendo la ciudad,
he's seen wandering the city,
un alto y de repente,
a pause and suddenly,
se viste de curiosidad,
he's dressed in curiosity,
elogios y una sonrisa,
compliments and a smile,
surge el encanto sin más tardar.
the charm arises without delay.
Quién se arriesgaría a detener
Who would dare to stop
lo que ya en marcha está?
what is already in motion?
Quién se atrevería
Who would be bold enough
a abandonar solo una oportunidad?
to leave behind just one chance?
Lo pintoresco está a plena vista,
The picturesque is fully in view,
ya las heridas se alejarán.
wounds will soon fade away.
No tengo ningún desvío,
I have no detour,
ningún destino en especial,
no special destination,
los sueños son instrumentos
dreams are instruments
de cuerda y viento que nos guiarán.
of strings and wind that will guide us.
Tiene a nuestra dicha
It's been nearly a century for our joy
ya casi un siglo de atravesar,
to cross through,
por cumbres, calles estrechas,
mountains, narrow streets,
puentes antiguos y mucho más.
ancient bridges and much more.
