English term or phrase: All of us are passers-by in the world
I would like to know what will be the best way to translate this term from American English into European Spanish. It's a translation about the Gypsies.

Will be okay to translate as todos nosotros somos transeúntes por el mundo?

Here is the full phrase:

The Gypsies, a wandering race, travel around the world alone, swaying their fate and soul. All of us are passers-by in the world, until one day we find a promised land for our spirit.
