Antonio Machado En tren |
Antonio Machado By train |
|
| Yo, para todo viaje | I, in every travel | |
| -siempre sobre la madera | -always on the wood | |
| de mi vagón de tercera-, | of my third class wagon,- | |
| voy ligero de equipaje. | go with scanty baggage. | |
| Si es de noche, porque no | If at nighttime, because | |
| acostumbro a dormir yo, | I don't use to sleep, | |
| y de día, por mirar | and at daytime, looking | |
| los arbolitos pasar, | the little trees pass by, | |
| yo nunca duermo en el tren | I never sleep in the train | |
| y, sin embargo, voy bien. | and, nevertheless, I'm all right. | |
| ¡Este placer de alejarse! | This pleasure of going away! | |
| Londres, Madrid, Ponferrada, | London, Madrid, Ponferrada, | |
| tan lindos... para marcharse. | so nice... to leave. | |
| Lo molesto es la llegada. | The annoying part is the arrival. | |
| Luego, el tren, al caminar, | Then, the train, as it walks, | |
| siempre nos hace soñar; | always makes us dream; | |
| y casi, casi olvidamos | and we almost, almost forget | |
| el jamelgo que montamos. | the weak horse that we ride. | |
| ¡Oh, el pollino | Oh, the young donkey | |
| que sabe bien el camino! | that knows well the path! | |
| ¿Dónde estamos? | Where are we? | |
| ¡Dónde todos nos bajamos! | Where we all get off! | |
| * * * | * * * | |
| El tren camina y camina | The train walks and walks | |
| y la máquina resuella, | and the machine breathes hard, | |
| y tose con tos ferina. | and coughs with whooping cough. | |
| ¡Vamos en una centella! | We're riding a flash! | |

Nice!!
(But the verb is "to weigh". "Weight", as you wrote, is "peso", the noun, not the verb.)
I hope you don't mind if I tell you, and of course I do not mind if you simply erase these comments.
Thank you very much.
I think this mistake was in Antonio Machado - Desnuda está la Tierra, wasn't it?
