Pedro on stage plays his trombonePedro en la tarima suena su trombón
Celia with the orchestra is going to singCelia con la orquesta va a cantar
Pedro tells Celia 'you're a bombshell'Pedro dice a celia "eres un bombón"
And Celia, smiling, starts to humY celia sonriente empieza a tararear

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, let's go thereOb-la-di, ob-la-da, vamos pa' llá,
The party is about to startQue la fiesta va a empezar

Look how delicious it isMira que sabroso está

Pedro on the tram goes to the jewelerPedro en el tranvía al joyero va
And buys a gold ringY un anillo de oro le compró
He goes to see Celia who is in the orchestraY va a ver a celia que en la orquesta está
He gives it to her to the rhythm of this songSe lo regala al compás de esta canción

A few years later, a quiet home, ohPocos años después un hogar tranquilo, ay
A love nest to enjoyUn nidito de amor para disfrutar
The affection of bothDel cariño de los dos

Oh, Pedro conducting does his jobAy, pedro dirigiendo hace su labor
And his boys follow him in rhythmY sus chicos le van al compás
Celia at home colors her blushCelia en casa colorea su rubor
And at night she goes to sing with the orchestraY por la noche con la orquesta va a cantar
