Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Un Poco Más by Omara Portuondo from Spanish to English.
Un poco más y a lo mejor nos comprendemos luego
A little more and maybe we'll understand each other later
Un poco más que traigo aromas de cariño nuevo
A little more than I bring aromas of new affection
Volvamos al camino del amor
Let's get back to the path of love
no importa lo que tenga que olvidar
no matter what i have to forget
si vamos a sufrir por un error, es preferible un ruego
If we are going to suffer for a mistake, a prayer is preferable
Un poco más será un alivio para dos fracasos
A little more will be a relief for two failures
y si te vas, llévate al menos mis cansados brazos
and if you leave, take at least my tired arms
Al fin que ya te di mi cariño, mi fe, mi vida entera
At last I gave you my love, my faith, my entire life
y si no te la llevas, qué me importa
and if you don't take it, what do I care?
que se queden afuera
let them stay outside
Por qué te vas, mi bien, tan de prisa
Why are you leaving, my good, so quickly?
no gozas mi agonía, si la noche se espera todo el día, espera tú también
You don't enjoy my agony, if the night waits all day, wait too
Al fin que ya te di mi cariño, mi fe, mi vida entera
At last I gave you my love, my faith, my entire life
y si no te la llevas, qué me importa
and if you don't take it, what do I care?
que se queden afuera
let them stay outside
Por qué te vas, mi bien, tan de prisa
Why are you leaving, my good, so quickly?
no gozas mi agonía, si la noche se espera todo el día
You don't enjoy my agony, if the night waits all day
espera tú también
wait you too
