Noche de Bodas
Chavela Vargas
Wedding Night
Oh my God!
Why did I come
If it's not the same to come as to leave screaming
Look at Joaquín, Sir
He's already become Mexican, they say no
They say yes
You should see him in Mexico
There he is tequila-ing with all the young girls
He brings them along
I've seen it
Let these little eyes eat the worms
Yes, Sir, Joaquinito, are you listening to me
Or do you think I'm talking badly about you, my love?
I love you very much, my buddy
Since the first day we met here
In Madrid, aha!
I really liked you
I liked you for being sincere
You told me to go to hell
Boy, what's that?
You were dealing with me, with your buddy, La Vargas
Warm it up, hot stuff!
And he said: La Vargas is here
We became real buddies
And we went partying
Every moonlit night
Will be for Joaquín and me, well
(May all nights be wedding nights)
All nights, Sir
(May all moons be honey moons)
Oh my God!
May makeup not hide your smile
May luggage not weigh down your wings
May the calendar not rush you
May the dictionary stop the bullets
May the blinds correct the dawn
May 'I want' win, the war of 'I can'
May those who wait not count the hours
May those who kill die of fear
May the end of the world catch you dancing
May the stage dye my hair gray
May you never know how, or when
Neither a hundred flying, nor yesterday nor tomorrow
May the heart not go out of style
May autumns tan your skin
May every night be a wedding night
May the honeymoon never end
(May all nights be wedding nights)
(May all moons be honey moons)
Oh, rope, don't break
It's the last pull!
May truths have no complexes
May lies seem like lies
May mirrors not agree with you
May it benefit you to look at what you see
May abandonment not take care of you
May every dinner be your last supper
May being brave not be so expensive
May being cowardly not be worth it
May they not buy you for less than nothing
May they not sell you love without thorns
May they not put you to sleep with fairy tales
May they not close the corner bar on you
May the heart not go out of style
May autumns tan your skin
May every night be a wedding night
May the honeymoon never end
(May all nights be wedding nights)
(May all moons be honey moons)
