Una Historia

In a boat I would put my thoughtsEn una barca metería mis pensamientos
And I would go out to sea on a stormy nightY me iría mar adentro en noche de tormenta
And I would only think about something of oursY pensaría solamente en algo nuestro

If this boat were to shipwreck on a deserted beachSi esta barca naufragase en una playa desierta
And with some twigsY con unas ramitas
I would make you a little hut, I would put a flower in your hairYo te haría una chocita, te pondría una flor en el pelo
To tell you how beautiful you arePa decirte que bonita
And there together we will liveY allí juntos viviremos
You and I, the boat and the little beachTu y yo, la barca y la playita

And noY no
There is no sadness, hatred, or resentment thereAllí no existe la tristeza, el odio ni el rencor

There lives Mother Nature, the boat, you and IAllí vive la madre naturaleza, la barca, tu y yo

Oh! How nice¡Ay! Qué agustito
At night a candle and during the day the sunshinePor la noche una candela y por el día el solecito

Two hearts united without stories or comic stripsDos corazones uníos sin historias ni viñetas
Two hearts united without Romeo or JulietDos corazones uníos sin Romeo ni Julieta
Without poets describing, without anyone subjecting usSin poetas que describan, sin que nadie nos someta
Only your lips and mineSolo tus labios y los míos
Only two mint kissesSolo dos besos de menta

I always imagined a placeYo que siempre imaginé un lugar
Where the rain was warm, in that tropical climateDonde la lluvia era caliente, en ese clima tropical
And IY yo
With two pieces of woodQue con dos trozos de madera

Oh! Ask me with those lips¡Ay! Pídeme por esa boca
For the little boat you wantLa barquita que tú quieras

And let the illusion run wild, never think of tormentsY dale rienda a la ilusión, no pienses nunca en tormentos
Let love speak to youDeja que te hable el amor
Love is not treacherousQue el amor no es traicionero
It's not treacherousNo es traicionero

When you least expect itQue cuando menos te lo esperas
It's already inside youYa lo tienes dentro el cuerpo

Come with meVente conmigo
Flamenco girl come with meFlamenca vente conmigo
And girl tell your motherY niña dile a tu mare
Cousin, that I'm your cousinPrimita, que soy tu primo
