Por una cabeza, de un noble potrillo
For a head, of a noble foal
Que justo en la raya, afloja al llegar
That right on the line, slackens when it arrives
Y que al regresar, parece decir
And when he returns, he seems to say
No olvides, hermano
don't forget bro
Vos sabes, no hay que jugar
You know, you don't have to play
Por una cabeza, metejón de un día
For a head, a day's bump
De aquella coqueta y risueña mujer
Of that coquettish and smiling woman
Que al jurar sonriendo el amor que está mintiendo
that by swearing smiling the love that is lying
Quema en una hoguera
burning in a bonfire
Todo mi querer
all my love
Por una cabeza, todas las locuras
By a head, all the craziness
Su boca que besa
his kissing mouth
Borra la tristeza
erase the sadness
Calma la amargura
calm the bitterness
Por una cabeza
By a head
Si ella me olvida
if she forgets me
Qué importa perderme
What does it matter to lose me
Mil veces la vida
a thousand times life
Para qué vivir
For what living
Cuántos desengaños, 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
his mouth of fire
Otra vez quiero besar
I want to kiss again
Basta de carreras, se acabo la timba
Enough of race, timba over
Un final reñido ya no vuelvo a ver
A fierce end I never see again
Pero si algún pingo llega a ser fija el domingo
But if any pingo becomes fixed on Sunday
Yo me juego entero
I play the whole game
Qué le voy a hacer
What am i going to do
Por una cabeza, todas las locuras
By a head, all the craziness
Su boca que besa
his kissing mouth
Borra la tristeza
erase the sadness
Calma la amargura
calm the bitterness
Por una cabeza
By a head
Si ella me olvida
if she forgets me
Qué importa perderme
What does it matter to lose me
Mil veces la vida
a thousand times life
Para qué vivir
For what living
