[English]
Cough, everyone coughing
Ha ha ha ha
She is my girl
And I'm her boy
She is my love
And I am all of her love
Call, hu!
The silver moon hid
And the golden sun appeared
A beautiful day dawned, smelling of joy
Because I dreamed and woke up thinking about her
Because she is my girl
And I'm her boy
She is my love
And I am all of her love
The rose bush has already given roses
And the rose I won was her
For her I put my heart in front of reason
And I'm going to tell everyone how much I like her
Because she is my girl
And I'm her boy
She is my love
And I am all of her love
Uh! (Go, Jorge)
The silver moon hid
And the golden sun appeared
A beautiful day dawned, smelling of joy
Because I dreamed and woke up thinking about her
Because she is my girl
And I'm her boy
She is my love
And I am all of her love
My girl, my girl
My girl, my girl
My girl, my girl
My girl, my girl
