Agitando Pañuelos

Waving Handkerchiefs

Agitando Pañuelos

I saw you, I won't forgetTe vi, no olvidaré
A carnival, guitar, drum, and violinUn carnaval, guitarra, bombo y violín
Waving handkerchiefs I saw youAgitando pañuelos te vi
Cadence in dancing, graceful profileCadencia al bailar, airoso el perfil

I left saying goodbyeMe fui diciendo adiós
In that goodbye, a love got entangledEn ese adiós quedó enredado un querer
Waving handkerchiefs I leftAgitando pañuelos me fui
How lovely to yearn for your zamba of yesterday!¡Qué lindo añorar tu zamba de ayer!

I will leave, you will comeYo me iré tu vendrás
I will take you, my ranch will rejoiceYo te llevaré, mi rancho se alegrará
Waving handkerchiefs I will leaveAgitando pañuelos me iré
And that carnival will live in meY en mí vivirá aquel carnaval
Waving handkerchiefs I will leaveAgitando pañuelos me iré
Singing this zamba with a lively beatCantando esta zamba repiqueteadita

I returned and found youVolví y te encontré
All my voice gave the copla a songToda mi voz le dio a la copla un cantar
Waving handkerchiefs I returnedAgitando pañuelos volví
Feeling my chest also stirSintiendo también mi pecho agitar

I danced until the endBailé hasta el final
Engualichao, I danced until dawnEngualichao, bailé hasta el amanecer
Waving handkerchiefs I dancedAgitando pañuelos bailé
How lovely to dance your zamba of yesterday!¡Que lindo bailar tu zamba de ayer!
