Al Cortar Una Gardenia Lyrics in English El Fantasma
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Al Cortar Una Gardenia by El Fantasma from Spanish to English.
Al cortar una gardenia
When cutting a gardenia
Se me vino una ramita
A little branch came to me
Qué cosa será el amor
What thing will love be
Que hasta el sueño se nos quita
That even sleep is taken from us
Voy a escribirle una carta
I'm going to write a letter
A mi chata, no muy tarde
To my girl, not too late
A ver si se la contesta
To see if she answers it
A este corazón cobarde
To this cowardly heart
Y si no me la contesta
And if she doesn't answer me
Yo de aquí me voy ahorita
I'll leave from here right now
Pa que sepas que te quiero
So you know that I love you
Por tu amor muero, güerita
For your love I die, blondie
Yo bajo al ojito de agua
I go down to the spring
En un voladero vivo
In a lively flight
Cuando uno tiene amores
When one has loves
No falta un entrometido
There's always an intruder
Qué torres tan elevadas
Such high towers
Cómo no las tumba el aire
How doesn't the wind knock them down
Qué bonita chaparrita
How pretty, shorty
Para nuera de mi madre, ay sí
To be my mother's daughter-in-law, oh yes
Despedida no le doy
I don't bid farewell
Porque no la traigo aquí
Because I don't bring her here
Se las dejé a mi güerita
I left them with my blondie
Pa que se acuerde de mí
So she remembers me
