(Quitate la mascara) alalale
(Take off your mask) alalale
(Quitate la mascara) veni, veni, veni
(Take off your mask) come, come, come
(Quitate la mascara) bandolera
(Take off your mask) bandolier
(Quitate la mascara) alalale
(Take off your mask) alalale
(Quitate la mascara) veni, veni, veni
(Take off your mask) come, come, come
(Quitate la mascara) hechizera
(Take off your mask) enchantress
Oye mi nuevo guaguanco
Hey my new guaguanco
Oye mi nuevo guaguanco lo que te voy a decir
Hey my new guaguanco what I'm going to tell you
Lo que te voy a decir es mi nuevo guaguanco
What I am going to tell you is my new guaguanco
Lo tuyo fue bandidaje organizado en amor
Yours was organized banditry in love
Caminando como gata para sembrar el terror
Walking like a cat to sow terror
Tu me pusiste la trampa
you set me up
Para que en ella cayera
So that in her it fell
Me diste de comer pantera
you fed me panther
Y tu sabor era gata
And your taste was cat
Yo soy el hijo del cariño
I am the son of affection
Del sabor y la dulzura
Of flavor and sweetness
Contigo yo fui ternura
with you I was tenderness
Y tu conmigo el abismo
And you with me the abyss
Me diste de comer pesca'o
You gave me to eat pesca'o
Sin tu quitarle la espina
Without you removing the thorn
De postre diste aspirina
For dessert you gave aspirin
Con tu sabor a mela'o (Quitate la mascara)
With your flavor of mela'o (Take off your mask)
Alalale (Quitate la mascara)
Alalale (Take off your mask)
Veni, veni, veni (Quitate la mascara)
Come, come, come (Take off your mask)
Yo soy el hijo del cariño
I am the son of affection
Y tambien de la dulzura
And also the sweetness
Contigo yo fui ternura
with you I was tenderness
Y tu conmigo el abismo
And you with me the abyss
(Quitate la mascara) alalale
(Take off your mask) alalale
(Quitate la mascara) veni, veni, veni
(Take off your mask) come, come, come
(Quitate la mascara) hechizera
(Take off your mask) enchantress
Pero que tutututututu
But what a tutututututu
Me diste de comer pesca'o
You gave me to eat pesca'o
Sin tu quitarle la espina
Without you removing the thorn
De postre diste aspirina
For dessert you gave aspirin
Con tu sabor a mela'o
With your flavor of mela'o
(Quitate la mascara) alalale
(Take off your mask) alalale
(Quitate la mascara) veni, veni
(Take off your mask) come, come

Bandolera tu serás y por eso yo te digo
