Sus Ojitos

Her Little Eyes

Sus Ojitos

How beautiful her little eyes areQué bonitos que son sus ojitos
That look like little dots of lifeQue parecen puntitos de vida
Don't allow me to say goodbye like thisNo permitas que así me despida
Without having sworn my love to themSin haberles jurado mi amor

They are small but really prettySon chiquitos pero re bonitos
And half-open, they look like slitsY entreabiertos, parecen rendijas
I never want them to be distressedYo no quiero que nunca se aflijan
Her eyes full of sunshineSus ojitos llenitos de Sol

Her eyes, when looking at meSus ojitos, al mirame
Played a trick on meMe jugaron una chanza
And now I carry the hopeY ahora traigo, la esperanza
Of being able to steal themDe podérmelos robar

I want to take her to my houseMe la quiero llevar pa' mi casa
To sing to her and annoy herPa' cantarle y pa' darle la lata
With my arm, I'll make a hookCon mi brazo le haré una alcayata
To take her with me for a walkPa' llevarla conmigo a pasear

I want to see her kneading the doughQuiero verla torteando la masa
And enjoying the beans with huazontleY apurarle al frijol con huazontle
I want to see her carrying a little oneQuiero verla cargando un escuincle
Who will soon call me dadQue muy pronto me diga papá

That in manliness, she resemblesQue en lo macho, se parezca
Nothing less than her fatherNada menos que a su padre
And that she takes from her motherY que saque de su madre
That way of lookingEse modo de mirar

I want to see her kneading the doughQuiero verla torteando la masa
And enjoying the beans with huazontleY apurarle al frijol con huazontle
I want to see her carrying a little oneQuiero verla cargando un escuincle
Who will soon call me dadQue muy pronto me diga papá
