Lyrics
Aquel tapado de armiño,
todo forrado en lamé,
que tu cuerpito abrigaba
al salir del cabaret.
Cuando pasaste a mi lado,
prendida a aquel gigoló,
aquel tapado de armiño
¡cuánta pena me causó!
¿Te acordás?, era el momento
culminante del cariño;
me encontraba yo sin vento,
vos amabas el armiño.
Cuántas veces tiritando,
los dos junto a la vidriera,
me decías suspirando:
¡Ay, amor, si vos pudieras!
Y yo con mil sacrificios
te lo pude al fin comprar,
mangué a amigos y usureros
y estuve un mes sin fumar.
Aquel tapado de armiño
todo forrado en lamé,
que tu cuerpito abrigaba
al salir del cabaret.
Me resultó, al fin y al cabo,
más durable que tu amor:
el tapado lo estoy pagando
y tu amor ya se apagó.
Lyrics translation
That cap of ermine,
all lined in lamé,
that your little body was warm
coming out of the cabaret.
When you walked by my side,
on that Gigolo,
that cap of ermine
how much pain you caused me!
Remember? it was time.
highlight of affection;
I found myself windless,
you loved the ermine.
How many times shivering,
the two of you by the window,
you told me sighing:
Oh, love, if you could!
And I with a thousand sacrifices
I could finally buy it for you.,
I wielded friends and loan sharks
and I didn't smoke for a month.
That cap of ermine
all lined in lamé,
that your little body was warm
coming out of the cabaret.
It turned out, after all,
more durable than your love:
I'm paying for the cover.
and your love is already gone.
