Pa' Que Bailen Los Muchachos
Anibal Troilo
For the Boys to Dance
For the boys to dance
I'm gonna play you, accordion
Life is a milonga!
Dance everyone, buddies,
because dancing is a hug:
Dance everyone, buddies,
because this tango sets the pace.
Between the slow coming and going
of the tango
there's a sweet phrase.
And she dances in other arms,
attached, surrendered,
to another love.
Don't complain, accordion,
It hurts my heart.
Who suffers from jealousy
is expressing their love.
Don't complain, accordion,
tonight I'll play you.
For the boys to dance
I'll play you tonight, accordion.
Life is a milonga!
She was like a mother,
she was my great love...
we opened up and she doesn't know
that today I cry for her like a child...
Who will know how to love her
with so much love,
like I did.
Poor friend, poor girl,
what crazy desire
to go look for you!
For the boys to dance
I'm gonna play you, accordion.
Life is a milonga!
