We're here to singTe venimos a cantar
The song of your arrivalLa canción de tu llegada
Don't keep us waiting withNo nos hagas esperar con
The window shut tightLa ventana cerrada

Tell me, tell me, generalDime, dime general
What’s bothering you, general?Qué te pica general
Don’t fall asleep, generalNo te duermas general
They’re coming for you, generalTe madrugan general

Tell me, tell me, general...Dime, dime general..

You’re getting a little too highA ti ya se te subió
Or it’s already getting to youO ya se te está subiendo
What’s going on, general?Qué te pasa general
You’re just showing off, dudePoste que andas presumiendo

Tell me, tell me, general...Dime, dime general…

A year ago at this same hourHace un año a la misma hora
Day by day and month by monthDía con día y mes por mes
We toasted to your absenceLe brindamos a tu ausencia
With some sherry wine.Con vinito de jerez.

Tell me, tell me, general...Dime, dime general…

You’re getting a little too highA ti ya se te subió
Or it’s already getting to youO ya se te está subiendo
What’s going on, general?Qué te pasa general
You’re just showing off, dudePoste que andas presumiendo

Tell me, tell me, general...Dime, dime general…
