La Churrasca

The Flirt

La Churrasca

Spent the whole night writing a little letterPasé la noche enterita escribiendo una cartita
To try to convince you, babe,Para poderte, vidita, convencer,
Sweet phrases speaking with tendernessFrases bonitas que hablaban con ternura
About your attractive figure, your womanly charms.De tu atrayente figura, tus encantos de mujer.

But I couldn't finish this letterPero no pude terminar esta cartita
To try to convince you, babe;Para poderte, vidita, convencer;
I said so many things in itTantas cosas en ella te decía
That in the end, I didn't even understand and had to tear it up.Que al final ni yo entendía y la tuve que romper.

Flirt!...¡Churrasca!...

My little flirt!...¡Mi churrasquita!...

Understand this little word that tells youEntendé esta palabrita que te dice
So many things and opens your heart.Tantas cosas y abrí tu corazón.

Spent the whole night consulting dictionaries,Pasé la noche enterita consultando diccionarios,
Little books, letter collections, and love forms;Libritos, epistolarios y formularios de amor;
But in none of those books with versesPero en ninguno de esos libros con versitos
Did I find my love written with passion.Encontré mi amor escrito con calor.

There wasn't a poet who could give me good advice,No hubo un poeta que me diera un buen consejo,
That's why, old buddy, I'll make myself understood better.Por eso, derecho viejo, yo me haré entender mejor.

Flirt!...¡Churrasca!...

My little flirt!...¡Mi churrasquita!...

Understand this little word that tells youEntendé esta palabrita que te dice
So many things and opens your heart.Tantas cosas y abrí tu corazón.
