El Muchacho Alegre

The Happy Boy

El Muchacho Alegre

I am the happy boyYo soy el muchacho alegre
Who wakes up drinkingQue me amanezco tomando
With my bottle of wineCon mi botella de vino
And playing my deck of cards.Y mi baraja jugando.

If you want to know who I amSi quieres saber quien soy
Ask CupidPreguntenselo a cupido
I am the happy boyYo soy el muchacho alegre
Favored by heaven.Del cielo favorecido.

With a new deck of cardsCon una baraja nueva
I would like to see them playLos quisiera ver jugar
To see if they lose to meA ver si conmigo pierden
Even their way of walking.Hasta el modito de andar.

You are like a watermelonEres como la sandia
You have the green on the outsideTienes lo verde por fuera
If you want someone else to enjoy youSi quieres que otro te goze
Ask God for my death.Pidele a dios que me muera.

If you want to know who I amSi quieres saber quien soy
Ask CupidPreguntenselo a cupido
I am the happy boyYo soy el muchacho alegre
Favored by heaven.Del cielo favorecido.

Now with this I say goodbyeYa con esta me despido
By the edge of a green fieldA orillas de un campo verde
Here they end up singingAqui se acaban cantando
Verses of the happy boy.Versos del muchacho alegre.
