El ilusionista [English translation]

sitting in a corner, he pays to get on

a ferris wheel that goes up

goes around and goes down

and when it comes down he sits again

on a thread escaping

from a badly pierced needle

oh my love, oh I don't know

what a shame that I got the wrong scenery

from woe to woe

oh his voice

fades away into a woe

the illusionist entered into his life ...

the illusionist entered into his life

he put the laughter into the tophat

and made it disappear

sinking amid sighs and sighs

this life he has left

to never return again

oh, that trick didn't go like that

from his pulse there isn't even a tic-tac

and even though he counted to three

he couldn't wake him up

charlatan illusionist

getting hopes up and nothing more ...

oh my love, oh I don't know

what a shame is turning my back

on this scenery

from woe to woe

speechless woe

lifeless because of woe

the illusionist entered into his life

the illusionist, the illusionist

the illusionist

stole his life away ...
