Lyrics

Esa Colombina puso en sus ojeras
Humo de la hogera de su corazon,
Aquella marquesa de la risa loca
Se pinto la boca por besar a un clown.
Cruza del palco hasta el coche
Serpentina nerviosa y fina
Como un pintoresco broche sobre la noche de carnaval
Te quiero conocer saber adonde vas.
Alegre mascarita, que me gritas al pasar:
«їQuien soy?, їAdonde voy?», «Adios… Adios… Adios…»
«Yo soy la misteriosa mujercita de tu afan».
No finjas ms la voz, abajo el antifaz
Tus ojos por el corso, van buscando mi ansiedad…
Descubrete, por fin… Tu risa me hace mal
Detras de tus desvios, todo el ao es Carnaval.
Esa Colombina con sonora burla
Truena la corneta de una pizpireta dama de organdi…
Y entre grito y risa, linda maragata
Jura que la mata la pasin por mi.
Bajo los chuscos carteles pasan los fieles
Del dios Jocundo y le van prendiendo
Al mundo sus cascabeles el carnaval…

Lyrics translation

That Colombina put on her dark circles
Smoke from the hearth of your heart,
That Marquise of crazy laughter
He painted his mouth for kissing a clown.
Cross from the box to the car
Nervous and fine Serpentine
Like a picturesque brooch on Carnival Night
I want to know where you're going.
Merry Little mask, you yell at me as you pass:
"who am I? where am I going?", "Goodbye ... Goodbye ... Goodbye…»
"I am the mysterious little woman of your Affan."
Don't pretend your voice, put the mask down.
Your eyes on the corso, they're looking for my anxiety…
Find out, at last ... your laughter makes me sick
Behind your detours, the whole ao is Carnival.
That Colombina with sonorous mockery
Thunders the bugle of a pussy Lady of organdi…
And between scream and laugh, linda maragata
Swear to God, pasin will kill her for me.
Under the whispers posters pass the faithful
Of the God Jocundo and they turn him on
To the world its bells the carnival…
