It still seems like a dreamAún me parece un sueno
It still doesn't feel realAún no si es realidad
I saw Bartola danceYo vi bailar a bartola
My god, what a beautyPor dios que preciosidad
In the parade, how elegantEn el paseo que garbo
What a way to danceQue manera de bailar
What grace, what rhythmQue se ñorio que ritmo
My god, what a beautyPor dios que preciosidad
How she moves her waistComo quiebra la cintura
Oh lord, what agilityAy señor que agilidad
I wish, by chanceYo quisiera por ventura
To dance with someone like herAlguien como ella bailar
Long live the mazamoraQue viva la mazamora
And the grace of my landY la gracia de mi tierra

Like Bartola with eleganceComo bartola con donosura
Without a care, who will danceSin sangarañas quien bailara
Who's up for it? Oh, what smoothnessQuien dijo yo? Ay gua que lisura
Another Bartola will never existOtra bartola ya nunca habrá
Like Bartola with graceComo bartola con donsura
Without a care, who will danceSin sanguarañas quien bailará
