Quisiera Tener Cien Pesos
Violeta Parra
I Wish I Had a Hundred Pesos
(peasant cueca)
(singer) I wish I had a hundred pesos
(singer) to find myself a little love
(singer) because for free it's no use
(singer) for them to love me a little.
If someone had, gentlemen,
About three hundred,
I bet they would talk to me
About marriage.
About marriage, yes,
For a few thousand,
Loves for free,
Long live Chile!
I don't even have a penny
Because I'm poor.
