Lyrics and translation Los Nietos - Eres Alta y Delgadita

Eres Alta y Delgadita

Eres Alta y Delgadita Tu hermosura me provoca.

Eres Alta y Delgadita
Tu hermosura me provoca
Mira que nariz, que boca
Que cuerpo que cinturita
No la cambiaria por otra
Ni aunque fuera más bonita.

Eres vaso de cristal
Que en el mar anda nadando
Como no te puedo hablar
Nada mas te ando rotando
No seas ingrata mujer,
No me hagas andar penando.

Me subi al cerro más alto
Pa' preguntarle a cupido
Que cual era la campana
Con que se tocaba olvido,
Pa' olvidar esa morena
Que olvidarla no eh podido.

Cupido me contesto
No le metas fuerte al pino
La mujer que sea celosa
Dale pronto su despido
Que se quede como el oso
Deslisando pal' camino
Ya con esta me despido
Deshojando la rosita
Aqui se acaba cantando
Versos de la delgadita
No la cambiaria por otra
Ni aunque fuera mas bonita...

You Are Tall and Slender

You are tall and slender Your beauty provokes me.

You are tall and slender
Your beauty provokes me
Look at that nose, that mouth
What a body, what a tiny waist
I would not trade you for another
Not even if she were prettier.

You are a glass vase
That swims in the sea
As I cannot speak to you
I just keep circling you
Do not be ungrateful, woman,
Do not make me wander in pain.

I climbed the highest hill
To ask Cupid
Which bell was the one
That played forgetfulness,
To forget that brunette
Whom I have not been able to forget.

Cupid answered me
Do not drink too much
A woman who is jealous
Give her her dismissal quickly
Let her be like the bear
Sliding down the path
With this I say goodbye
Plucking the petals of the rose
Here the song ends
Verses of the slender one
I would not trade her for another
Not even if she were prettier...
