[English]

Ay, gitana

Oh, Gypsy

Me están matando

They're killing me

Ella es fanática de lo sensual

She's obsessed with the sensual

A ella le gusta, le gusta provocar

She likes to provoke

Ella es fanática de lo sensual

She's obsessed with the sensual

Esta gitana me quiere enamorar

This gypsy wants to make me fall in love

Ay, gitana

Oh, Gypsy

Me están matando la' gana'

My desire is killing me

Es que estoy enamorado

It's because I'm in love

Y no sé ni cómo te llamas

And I don't even know your name

Ay, bandida

Oh, bandit

Me complicaste la vida

You complicated my life

Por ti yo lo dejo todo

For you, I'll leave everything behind

Y hasta te di to' lo que tenía

And I even gave you all I had

Y es que es difícil, pero qué haré

It's hard, but what can I do

Cuando tú me ame', aquí estaré

When you love me, I'll be here

Que si tengo que esperarte, te esperaré

If I have to wait for you, I will wait

Pero niña no me tarde, que es tarde, y la cosa esta que arde

But girl, don't take too long, 'cause it's late, and things are heating up

Te espero con mis tenis Balenciaga donde siempre te esperaba

I'll wait for you with my Balenciaga sneakers, just like always, waiting for you

Para darte lo que sé que te gustaba, yeh

To give you what I know you like, yeah

No me mires así, gitana, me derrite tu mirada, tú

Don't look at me like that, gypsy, your gaze melts me

Hoy no te me escapa', y acabamo' en la ca-ma

Today you're not escaping, and we end up in bed

Ella es fanática de lo sensual

She's obsessed with the sensual

A ella le gusta le gusta provocar

Ay, bandida

Oh, bandit

Me complicaste la vida

Por ti yo lo dejo todo

Y hasta te di to' lo que tenía

And I even gave you all I had

Mi mamá me decía que no me fiara

My mom told me not to trust you

Que tú tienes pinta de mala

That you look like trouble

Yo no hice caso y me pille por tu mirada

I ignored it and got caught by your gaze

Mala mía, te pongo un piso en Triana

My bad, I got you a place in Triana

Conmigo no necesita' juguete'

You don’t need toys with me

Yo tengo ritmo y soniquete

I have rhythm and style

Yo sé que a ti te gustan los billete'

I know you like the money

No te preocupe' llego el jeque

Don't worry, the sheikh has arrived

Pue' vámono' tú y yo, vamo' hacerlo en priva'o

Let's go, you and me, let’s do this privately

A conocer esos lugares que has soña'o

Aunque por mucho' billete' que haya' gasta'o

En Andalucía es donde está el mejor pesca'o
