Two Tickets
You tell me, my dear dark-skinned girl:
"Let's go to other lands.
Here I have two tickets
Either you follow me or you stay..."
"Let's go to other places
to enjoy love,
we will live very happily
without grievances or resentments..."
"I don't offer you the stars
nor a new world either
I am very poor, you know it,
a gambler and a reveler
...but yes, by God, I ask you
in exchange for my love:
that I dedicate myself to loving you
and to leave all my vices..."
"The trains are already whistling
say goodbye to your relatives
we will live very happily
you will see that you won't regret it
already crossing the border
everything is settled
they would sooner leave me dead
than take you away from my side...
