Por Mi Puerta No Lo Pasen

Don't Pass It Through My Door

Por Mi Puerta No Lo Pasen

In the olive green it sings, oh, how it singsEn la verde oliva canta, ay, que canta
In the olive greenEn la verde oliva
In the olive green it sings, oh, how it singsEn la verde oliva canta, ay, que canta
In the olive greenEn la verde oliva

What bird could that be?¿Qué pájaro sería aquel?
That sings in the olive greenQue canta en la verde oliva
Run and tell it to be quietCorre y dile que se calle
That its singing hurts meQue su cante me lastima
Run and tell it to be quietCorre y dile que se calle
That its singing hurts meQue su cante me lastima

You will be my beloved tokenTú serás mi prenda querida
You will be my beloved pledgeTú serás mi prenda adorada
You will be the cuckoo birdTú serás el pájaro cuco
That joyfully sings at dawnQue alegre canta de madruga'

Oh, how I love youAy, que te quiero
How much I love youCuánto te quiero
How much I love youCuánto te quiero
Without you, my soul, what do I need it for?Sin ti, mi alma ¿pa' que la quiero?

And don't let it pass through my doorY por mi puerta no la pasen
Don't let it pass through my doorNo la pasen por mi puerta
And don't let it pass through my doorY por mi puerta no la pasen
Don't let it pass through my doorNo la pasen por mi puerta

I have already said that your burialYa yo he dicho que tu entierro
Don't let it pass through my doorNo lo pasen por mi puerta
Because I don't want to see youPorque mirarte no quiero
Not your face, neither alive nor deadNi a la carita, ni viva, ni muerta
I have already said that your burialYa yo he dicho que tu entierro
Don't let it pass through my doorNo lo pasen por mi puerta
Because I don't want to see youPorque mirarte no quiero
Not your face, neither alive nor deadNi a la carita, ni viva ni muerta

I will give my insides for youLas entrañas mías, por ti las daré
For I feel contentQue yo me encuentro paga'o
As long as you treat me wellCon que tú me cameles bien
