Paroles et traduction Jairo - Ay, corazón, no te desboques

Ay, corazón, no te desboques

AY, CORAZÓN NO TE DESBOQUES
Tango

Ay corazón, no te desboques tanto
Vas a cruzar del Pacífico el Caribe,
Confiesa que al llegar llevas un tango
Y una aire tropical que te revive.
Ay, dulce sombra de mi antigua sombra,
Este soy yo dolido por la ausencia
Y vuelvo hacia este pueblo
Que me nombra y revive
Mi lucha con paciencia.
Ay, corazón, no te desboques tanto
Al alcanzar el cardinal del infinito
Si cruzas este siglo como un canto
Raíz elemental que guarda un grito.
Dame templanza,
Alárgame las alas, dame la luz
Para que en luz yo suba,
Que en un milagro vestiré mis galas
Y pon la proa con destino a Cuba.

Ay, my heart, don't get carried away

AY, MY HEART, DON'T GET CARRIED AWAY
Tango

Oh my heart, don't get carried away so much
You are going to cross the Pacific and the Caribbean
Confess that on arrival you are carrying a tango
And a tropical air that revives you
Oh, sweet shadow of my former shadow,
This is me, hurt by absence
And I return to this town
That names me and revives
My struggle with patience.
Oh my heart, don't get carried away so much
Upon reaching the cardinal of infinity
If you cross this century as a song
An elemental root that keeps a cry.
Give me temperance,
Spread my wings, give me the light
So that I rise in light,
That in a miracle I will dress in my finery
And set sail for Cuba.
