When I Was A Lad by Gilbert And Sullivan (original lyric)
Sir joseph:
when i was a lad i served a term
as office boy to an attorney's firm.
i cleaned the windows and i swept the floor,
and i polished up the handle of the big front door.
i polished up that handle so carefullee
that now i am the ruler of the queen's navee!
chorus repeats
As office boy i made such a mark
that they gave me the post of a junior clerk.
i served the writs with a smile so bland,
and i copied all the letters in a big round hand--
i copied all the letters in a hand so free,
that now i am the ruler of the queen's navee!
Chorus.
In serving writs i made such a name
that an articled clerk i soon became;
i wore clean collars and a brand-new suit
for the pass examination at the institute,
and that pass examination did so well for me,
that now i am the ruler of the queen's navee!
Chorus.
Of legal knowledge i acquired such a grip
that they took me into the partnership.
and that junior partnership, i ween,
was the only ship that i ever had seen.
but that kind of ship so suited me,
that now i am the ruler of the queen's navee!
Chorus.
I grew so rich that i was sent
by a pocket borough into parliament.
i always voted at my party's call,
and i never thought of thinking for myself at all.
i thought so little, they rewarded me
by making me the ruler of the queen's navee!
chorus.
Now landsmen all, whoever you may be,
if you want to rise to the top of the tree,
if your soul isn't fettered to an office stool,
be careful to be guided by this golden rule--
stick close to your desks and never go to sea,
and you all may be rulers of the queen's navee!
chorus
When I Was A Lad by Gilbert And Sullivan (spanish translation)
Sir Joseph:
cuando era un muchacho cumplí un término
como oficinista de la firma de un abogado.
Limpié las ventanas y barrí el piso,
y pulí el mango de la gran puerta de entrada.
He pulido ese mango tan cuidadosamente
¡que ahora soy el gobernante de la navee de la reina!
repite el coro
Como oficinista, hice tal marca
que me dieron el puesto de un empleado subalterno.
serví los escritos con una sonrisa tan suave,
y copié todas las letras en una gran mano redonda
Copié todas las letras en una mano tan libre,
¡que ahora soy el gobernante de la navee de la reina!
Coro.
En el servicio de escrituras hice tal nombre
que un empleado articulado pronto me convertí;
llevaba collares limpios y un traje nuevo
para el examen de aprobación en el instituto,
y ese examen de aprobación me fue tan bien,
¡que ahora soy el gobernante de la navee de la reina!
Coro.
De conocimiento legal, adquirí tal agarre
que me llevaron a la asociación.
y esa asociación junior, yo ween,
era la única nave que jamás había visto.
pero ese tipo de barco me satisfizo
¡que ahora soy el gobernante de la navee de la reina!
Coro.
Crecí tan rico que me enviaron
por una ciudad de bolsillo en el parlamento.
siempre voté a la llamada de mi partido,
y nunca pensé en pensar por mí mismo en absoluto.
Pensé tan poco que me recompensaron
haciéndome el gobernante de la navee de la reina!
coro.
Ahora todos los hombres de tierra, quienquiera que seas,
si quieres subir a la cima del árbol,
si tu alma no está encadenada a un taburete de la oficina,
tenga cuidado de ser guiado por esta regla de oro--
quédate cerca de tus escritorios y nunca vayas al mar,
¡y todos ustedes pueden ser gobernantes de la navee de la reina!
coro
Only among all we can make this a better place :)
