Lyrics

Español

(recitado) Yo soy parte de mi pueblo y le debo lo que soy; hablo con su mismo verbo y canto con su misma voz. He querido rendirle a los barrios un sincero homenaje de amor y no encuentro motivo más lindo que brindárselo en una canción. Cada uno me trae un recuerdo, cada uno me da una emoción; he querido rendirle a los barrios un sincero homenaje de amor. Barracas, La Boca, Boedo, Belgrano, Palermo, Saavedra y Liniers, Urquiza, Pompeya, Patricios, San Telmo y Flores, mi barrio de ayer, Balvanera, Caballito, Villa Luro y Montserrat, Villa Crespo, Almagro y Lugano, el Retiro y Paternal. Cien barrios porteños, cien barrios de amor, cien barrios metidos en mi corazón.

English · machine translation

(recited) I am part of my people and I owe him what I am; I speak with his same verb and I sing with the same voice. I have wanted to pay to the neighborhoods a sincere tribute of love and I can find no nicer reason than to offer it to them in song. Each one brings me a memory, each one gives me an emotion; I wanted to pay a sincere homage of love a sincere tribute of love. Barracas, La Boca, Boedo, Belgrano, Palermo, Saavedra and Liniers, Urquiza, Pompeya, Patricios, San Telmo and Flores, my neighborhood of yesterday, Balvanera, Caballito, Villa Luro and Montserrat, Villa Crespo, Almagro and Lugano, Retiro and Paternal. One hundred porteño neighborhoods, a hundred neighborhoods of love, a hundred neighborhoods tucked in my heart.
