Lyrics

Diseñas escaparates para apresar allí
la libertad de esa niña que mas bien ya es toda una mujer
cierras puertas y ventanas,
una fuga crees evitar,
no ves que por los cristales que dan a la calle
ella ve al tiempo pasar.
Desnuda mira su cuerpo y ve que la infancia ha pasado ya…
Seguro que ya olvidaste hace mucho tiempo ya,
que en tu pecho había un fuego
que era el fuego de la juventud
y ahora no eres más que hielo
enfriando ese vástago de mujer…
Suéltale la rienda a esa muchacha
que ella quiere vivir,
ella quiere volar,
ella quiere reir,
ella quiere vivir…
Suéltale la rienda a esa muchacha
que ella quiere tener,
una mano amiga,
una boca vecina,
un beso en una esquina…
Y no le arranques más,
y no le robes más,
ese fuego de juventud.
Todos los hombres son malos,
acostumbras a decir,
quiero que sepas mi amigo que
el león juzga por su condición
y que no es justo que ella
pague todo el daño que un día túhiciste…
Prohibidas las amistades
que la puedan distraer,
no ves que sus dos amigas
son Soledad y Aburrimiento,
lo peor es que ella es tan bella
tiene tanto que ofrecer…
Suéltale la rienda a esa muchacha
que ella quiere vivir,
ella quiere volar,
ella quiere reir,
ella quiere vivir…
Suéltale la rienda a esa muchacha
que ella quiere tener,
una mano amiga,
una boca vecina,
un beso en una esquina…
Y no le arranques más,
y no le robes más,
ese fuego de juventud.

Lyrics translation

You design storefronts to trap there
the freedom of that girl who is rather already a woman
you close doors and windows,
a leak you think avoid,
don't you see that by the crystals that face the street
she sees time go by.
Naked looks at her body and sees that childhood has already passed…
I'm sure you forgot a long time ago.,
that in your chest there was a fire
that was the fire of youth
and now you're nothing but ice
cooling that woman's stem…
Let go of that girl.
that she wants to live,
she wants to fly,
she wants to laugh,
she wants to live…
Let go of that girl.
that she wants to have,
a helping hand,
a neighbor's mouth,
a kiss in a corner…
And don't rip it off anymore,
and don't steal from him anymore,
that fire of youth.
All men are bad,
you used to say,
I want you to know my friend that
the lion judges by his condition
and it's not fair that she
pay for all the damage you once suffered…
Friendships are forbidden
that they can distract her,
don't you see her two friends
they're loneliness and boredom,
the worst part is she's so beautiful
it has so much to offer…
Let go of that girl.
that she wants to live,
she wants to fly,
she wants to laugh,
she wants to live…
Let go of that girl.
that she wants to have,
a helping hand,
a neighbor's mouth,
a kiss in a corner…
And don't rip it off anymore,
and don't steal from him anymore,
that fire of youth.
