Imaginate m'hijo [English translation]

When your childhood fades, when your body grows,

when by talking incorrectly, you feel yourself cheeky,

when you're becoming independent, when you're working,

when for not being well dressed you feel yourself inhibited...

Imagine son, imagine...

When you admire the pockets of the others, when you feel yourself less,

when they abuse you one day, when they use you,

when you get excited one day, when you're getting married,

when in some brothel you waste your money...

Imagine son, imagine...

When a tango gets printed in your lips, when you're without a dime,

when for not having for a coat, you dream with a robbery,

when the tobacco wrinkles your voice, when you get thin,

when in the bed with a Mafalda she turns her back...

Imagine son, imagine...

When you earn the extra pay, when you're carried away,

when you make extra hours in the night, to buy a car,

when you're tired of fighting, when you're wore out,

when your dreams fall apart and your arms ache...

Imagine son, imagine...

When your look gets damped, when something in you dies,

when you sink in the glasses and cry your failures,

when someday you're remembering, when you're meditating,

when one day you say to your son "Imagine son"

Imagine son, imagine...

Imagine son, imagine...
