Si al Retiro me llevas

Language: Spanish (Español)

Our translations: ENG FRE GER

Si al Retiro me llevas
entre tanto galán,
por la noche no digas
que te sientes muy mal.
Que el marido que enseña
la que debe guardar,
no es extraño que diga
que le duele el frontal.

Nimmst du mich mit in den Retiro

Language: German (Deutsch) after the Spanish (Español)

Nimmst du mich mit in den Retiro
unter so viele Liebhaber,
dann sag’ in der Nacht mir nicht,
dass es dir sehr schlecht geht.
Denn der Mann, der das vorführt,
was er schützen sollte,
sollte sich nicht wundern,
dass ihm der Kopf schmerzt.
