En La Vía
Edmundo Rivero
In the way
Let's see, hey, young man, bring me some cigarettes...
And saddle that glass again, again,
That I do not join with those others
They suck angry, crying afterwards.
I take castor without pain or grievance,
That, in the end, a displeasure is killed by a pleasure...
Why go back and forth, if the rosary is long,
Cut to spite by a woman!
And, if I came to miss her
Because, in the end, I loved her,
I must not lay down, dejected,
In a corner of the cafe,
I don't even have to take out a handkerchief
To bring it to my eyes,
Nor tear like a lazy person
Because I was left on the road.
He went away? bad luck! Coffee and Creole bread...
How much merengue: "let the unfaithful woman return"!...
If he who wrinkles asking for help
He is not a man nor is he ashamed of him...
Goodbye, bulincito! what a goodbye, relieved!
Paco'e Valerios, everything is a winner!
Patience, buddy! Don't spit out the road!
Back at the convent, don't get hot.
