The caress gives pleasure
The caress makes you suffer
The caress sometimes hurts
Sometimes not
The caress sometimes gnaws
The heart
Everyone wants to know
What is the caress
No one knows if it's white
If it's mulatto or black (2x)
Who doesn't know what a caress is
Asks grandma
Who is already seventy years old
And still wants affection
And complains day and night
For living so alone
And complains day and night
For living so alone
Oh, what affection, what caress
What a good little cry
Play a little more
Without going out of tune
My dear friend, come closer
Oh, what a good caress
Oh, what a good caress
Oh, what a good caress
