Yo tengo pintada en la piel
I have painted on the skin
La lágrima de esta ciudad
The tear of this city
La misma que da de beber
The same one that gives to drink
La misma te hará naufragar
It will make you shipwreck
Yo tengo en la piel su sabor
I have its taste on my skin
Un leve resabio de sal
A slight taste of salt
Que nunca he sabido esconder
That I have never known how to hide
Que nunca he sabido mirar
That I have never known how to look
Si dejo elegir a mis pies
If I let my feet choose
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
El mar que me trajo hasta aquí
The sea that brought me here
El puerto en que habré de zarpar
The port in which I will have to set sail
Un día pensando en volver
One day thinking of going back
Un día volviendo a escapar
One day escaping again
Un día cualquiera me iré
One day I will go
Dejando su lágrima atrás
Leaving her tear behind
La pena que me haga partir
The pity that makes me leave
La misma me hará regresar
It will make me come back
Si dejo elegir a mis pies
If I let my feet choose
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Si dejo elegir a mis pies
If I let my feet choose
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Me llevan camino del mar
They take me to the sea
Al bolsillo se va
to the pocket it goes
