These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Por una cabeza de un noble potrillo
By a head of a noble foal
Que justo en la raya afloja al llegar
That right on the line gives up when you arrive
Y que al regresar parece decir
And when he returns he seems to say
'No olvides hermano, vos sabés no hay que jugar'
'Don't forget brother, you know you don't have to play'
Por una cabeza metejón de un día
For a bumpy head of a day
De aquella coqueta y risueña mujer
Of that coquettish and smiling woman
Que al jugar sonriendo el amor que está mintiendo
that when playing smiling the love that is lying
Quema en una hoguera todo mi querer
Burn in a bonfire all my love
Por una cabeza (por una cabeza)
For a head (for a head)
Todas las locuras (todas las locuras)
All the crazy (all the crazy)
Su boca que besa
his kissing mouth
Borra la tristeza, calma la amargura
Erase the sadness, calm the bitterness
Por una cabeza (por una cabeza)
For a head (for a head)
Si ella me olvida (si ella me olvida)
If she forgets me (if she forgets me)
Qué importa perderme
What does it matter to lose me
Mil veces la vida ¿Para qué vivir?
A thousand times life, why live?
Cuántos desegaños por una cabeza
How many disappointments for a head
Yo juré mil veces no vuelvo a insistir
I swore a thousand times I will not insist again
Pero si un mirar me hiere al pasar
But if a look hurts me as I pass
Su boca de fuego otra vez quiero besar
His mouth of fire again I want to kiss
Basta de gerberas, se acabó la timba
Enough of the gerberas, the timba is over
Un final reñido ya no vuelvo a amar
A close ending I don't love anymore
Pero si algún pingo llega a ser fija el domingo
But if any pingo becomes fixed on Sunday
Yo me juego entero ¿qué le voy a hacer?
I play the whole thing, what am I going to do?
Por una cabeza (por una cabeza)
For a head (for a head)
Todas las locuras (todas las locuras)
All the crazy (all the crazy)
Su boca que besa
his kissing mouth
Borra la tristeza, calma la amargura
Erase the sadness, calm the bitterness
Por una cabeza (por una cabeza)
For a head (for a head)
Si ella me olvida (si ella me olvida)
If she forgets me (if she forgets me)
Qué importa perderme
What does it matter to lose me
Mil veces la vida ¿Para qué vivir?
A thousand times life, why live?
