English to Spanish: W. Blake's "The Tyger". General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English The Tyger (William Blake).
Tyger tyger burning bright
in the forests of the night;
what immortal hand or eye
could frame thy fearful simmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
burnt the fire of thyne eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand, dare sieze the fire?
And what shoulder, & what art
could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat
what dread hand? & what dread feet?
What the hammer? What the chain,
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp,
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears
and water'd heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Tyger Tyger burning bright,
in the forests of the night:
What immortal hand or eye,
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
Translation - Spanish El tigre.
Tigre tigre ardiendo intenso
en el nocturno bosque inmerso
¿Qué inmortales ojos o manos
pudieron trazar tu temible simetría?
¿En qué abismo o atmósfera lejana prendió la llama de tu mirada?
¿En qué alas atrevió a elevarse?
¿Qué mano osaría incendiarle?
¿Y con qué soporte e inspiración
se trenzó la fuerza de tu corazón?
¿Y qué mano y pie augustos dieron inicio a su pulso?
¿Cuál fue el mazo, cuál el herraje?
¿Qué horno fundió la mente de tu linaje?
¿Cuál sería el yunque? ¿Qué puño gigante
de tus mortíferos terrores forzó en engaste?
Cuando las estrellas sus venablos lanzaron
y con sus lagrimas los cielos licuaron:
¿Reiría él, su obra ante sí?
¿Acaso él, quién hizo al cordero te hizo a tí?
Tigre tigre ardiendo intenso
en el nocturno bosque inmerso:
¿Qué inmortales ojos o manos
osaron trazar tu temible simetría?

Source text - Spanish La Interesada
Si yo te bajara el Sol, quemadota que te dabas, habas
Si te bajara la Luna como diablos la cargabas, habas
Si te bajara un estrella vida mía te dislumbrabas, habas
Mejor no, no te bajo el Sol, ni la Luna ni la estrella pa que no te pase nada
Mejor no te bajo el Sol, ni la Luna ni la estrella, no seas tan interesada.
Si a ti ofreciera el Mar, yo te apuesto que te ahogabas, habas
Si te ofreciera un millón, la manota que estirabas, habas
Si te llevo a Nueva York de seguro ahí me dejabas, habas,
Mejor no, no te ofrezco el Mar, ni el millón ni Nueva York pa que no te pase nada,
Mejor no ofrezco el mar, ni te llevo a Nueva York tu eres muy interesada.
Si yo te diera mi amor, la armadota que te dabas, habas
Si te hablara con pasión que soba me acomodabas, habas
Si te hiciera una canción, con el otro la cantabas, habas
Mejor no, no te doy mi amor, ni te ofrezco mi canción, pa que no me pase nada
Mejor no te doy mi amor y le sigo al vacilón, tu eres muy interesada,
habas, habas, habas, ya vas.
Translation - English The Pretender
If I would give you the sun, go guess what a burn you’d get! Get!
If I would bring you the moon… How the hell would you go hold it! Hold it!
If I brought you down a star Darling you would loose your sight! Ay!
I rather not… Not bring you the sun, neither moon, not the stars, to make sure that you’re OK
I rather not bring you the sun, neither moon, not the stars, don’t be so pretentious girl!
If I would give you the sea… I put money you’d drown! Drown!
If I offered you a million… One big paw you would pull out! Out!
If I took you to New York… Once there you would drop me flat! Flat!
I rather not… Offer you the sea, not the cash or the trip to make sure that you’re OK
I will not give you the sea, not the cash nor NY don’t be so pretentious girl!
If I would give you my love… One big head you’d surely get! Get!
If I talked to you with passion… What a rip off I would get! Get!
Were I to compose a song for you… With the other guy you’d sing it! Sing it!
I rather not… Not grant you my love, neither offer you my song, to make sure that I’m OK!
I will not give you my love, carry on just games n’ fun, you’re such a pretentious girl!
Girl, girl, girl… and watch out!!
