A ese amor que te atormenta
To that love that torments you
Échale limón y menta
Pour lemon and mint
Para que vuelva a tus brazos
To return to your arms
A ese amor que te desvela
To that love that reveals you
Ponle sabor a canela
Flavor cinnamon
Que acabe con tu fracaso
End your failure
A ese amor que te da pena
To that love that makes you feel sorry
Un poco de yerbabuena
A little peppermint
Que encienda su corazón
Let it ignite your heart
A ese amor que no te quiere
To that love that doesn't love you
Ponle un ramo de claveles
Put a bouquet of carnations
Que te devuelva su amor
May his love return to you
A ese amor que se te aleja
To that love that moves away from you
Un poco de miel de abejas
A little honey
Para endulzar su regreso
To sweeten his return
Ya verás como regresa
You'll see how it comes back
Tuyo de pies a cabeza
Yours from head to toe
Con su calor y sus besos
With their warmth and kisses
Ya verás que el cocimiento
You will see that cooking
Lo trae a ti sin aliento
Brings it to you breathlessly
Y encendido de pasión
And ignited with passion
Jamás podrá darse cuenta
You can never realize it
Que fue el limón y la menta
What was lemon and mint
Que puse en esta canción
What did I put in this song
Y fue mi collar de cuentas
And it was my beaded necklace.
Quien trajo su amor de vuelta
Who brought His Love Back
Para llenarte de amor
To fill you with love
A ese amor que te atormenta
To that love that torments you
Échale limón y menta
Pour lemon and mint
Encendido de pasión vendrá
Ignition of passion will come
Para que nunca te mienta
So he never lies to you
A ese amor que te atormenta
To that love that torments you
Échale limón y menta
Pour lemon and mint
Échale limón y menta, miel de abeja
Pour lemon and mint, honey
Azúcar prieta a ese sinvergüenza
Sugar squeezes that scoundrel
A ese amor que te atormenta, (¡azúca'!)
To that love that torments you, (¡azúca'!)
Échale limón y menta
Pour lemon and mint
Tú hazme caso, suéltate el moño
You listen to me, let go of your bun
Prende una vela a San Antonio
Light a candle to San Antonio
A ese amor que te atormenta (ese sabe más que todo el mundo)
To that love that torments you (that one knows more than everyone else)
Échale limón y menta
Pour lemon and mint
Ponle claveles, rosas blancas
Put carnations, white roses
Rosas rojas lo que tú quieras
Red roses whatever you want
Pero hay que conseguirlo óomo sea
But you have to get it any way
A ese amor que te atormenta
To that love that torments you
