Lyrics

Español

Buenos Aires tiene De noche y de día, Mujeres tan lindas Que no las cambiaría. Sin hablar de más Ni despreciar a las inglesas, Y sin humillar Por las francesas. Buenos Aires tiene Mujeres tan lindas, Que uno ya pierde la razón Y da el corazón. Soy el canyengue De esta milonga, Porteña linda No hay quién te pise el poncho, Ayer creí que por Maipú y Tucumán Iba a morir de amor.

English · machine translation

Buenos Aires has By night and by day, Women so beautiful That I wouldn't change them. Without speaking of more Nor despise the English, And without humiliating By the French. Buenos Aires has Women so beautiful, That one already loses one's reason And gives the heart. I am the canyengue Of this milonga, Porteña linda No one can step on your poncho, Yesterday I thought that by Maipú and Tucumán I was going to die of love.
