Lyrics

Español

Yo soy un mozo cantor Fogueado de tanto andar, Tuve una pena de amor Quien sabe dónde andará. Mi nombre es el de Juan Cruz Y por mi orgullo mejor, De sur a norte alumbrar Me dicen el ruiseñor. Les traigo a flor de los labios Las canciones que me pidan, Yo sé cerrar una herida Y hacer olvidar agravios. Volqué mi acento en los barrios Y en cualquier sitio que fuere, Que no canta aquel que quiere Si no el que sabe cantar.

English · machine translation

I am a singing boy Trained from so much walking, I had a sorrow of love Who knows where it will go. My name is Juan Cruz And for my pride better, From south to north to light They call me the nightingale. I bring you the flower of my lips The songs they ask of me, I know how to close a wound And make you forget grievances. I turned my accent in the neighborhoods And anywhere I go, That it is not he who sings who wants to But the one who knows how to sing.
