Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Gavilán O Paloma by Cristian Castro from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
No dejabas de mirar estabas sola
You didn't stop looking, you were alone
Completamente bella y sensual
Completely beautiful and sensual
Algo me arrastro hacia ti como una ola
Something crawled towards you like a wave
Y fui y te dije hola que tal
And I went and said hi how are you
Esa noche entre tus brazos caí en la trampa
That night in your arms I fell into the trap
Cazaste al aprendiz de seductor
You hunted the seducer's apprentice
Y me diste de comer sobre tu palma
And you fed me on your palm
Haciéndome tu humilde servidor
Making me your humble servant
Amiga, hay que ver como es el amor
Friend, you have to see what love is like
Que vuela a quien lo toma
That flies to whoever takes it
Gavilán o paloma
Hawk or pigeon
Pobre tonto, ingenuo charlatán
Poor fool, naive charlatan
Que fui paloma por querer ser gavilán
That I was a dove for wanting to be a hawk
Amiga, hay que ver como es el amor
Friend, you have to see what love is like
Que vuela a quien lo toma
That flies to whoever takes it
Gavilán o paloma
Hawk or pigeon
Fui bajando lentamente tu vestido
I was slowly lowering your dress
Y tu no me dejaste ni hablar
And you didn't even let me talk
Solamente suspirabas te necesito
You were only sighing I need you
Abrázame mas fuerte, mas
Hold me tighter, more
Al mirarte me sentí desengañado
When I looked at you I felt disappointed
Solo me dio frió tu calor
Your heat only gave me cold
Lentamente te solté de entre mis brazos
I slowly released you from my arms
Y dije estate quieta por favor
And I said be still please
Amiga, hay que ver como es el amor
Friend, you have to see what love is like
Que vuela a quien lo toma
That flies to whoever takes it
Gavilán o paloma
Hawk or pigeon
Pobre tonto, ingenuo charlatán
Poor fool, naive charlatan
Que fui paloma por querer ser gavilán
That I was a dove for wanting to be a hawk
