[English]

I found you once

Dancing alone in a disco

And I don’t know why I fell in love with you

Seeing the way you dance

When I looked at you

Your big eyes made my heart race

And I couldn’t speak, I just stood there

In the middle of the floor, not knowing what to do

To the girl who…

I left the girl who had come alone with me

I didn’t know what to do next

I took your hands and we started dancing

A little later

We left the disco together

We went out for dinner and talked

That’s how our love began

I soon discovered

That you’re the girl I was born for

I knew it well, because never before

Had I felt what I felt there

I paid the bill

And we left that place

To walk, because that night

Was perfect for loving

When we arrived at a park

We sat down and I took your hand

Then I hugged you, and for the first time

I kissed you passionately, I kissed you

It was after a month

That I asked you to be my wife

You said yes and we got married

There in that disco

Where I met you

Where I fell in love with you

In the disco, where I met you

In the disco

Where I fell in love with you

In the disco, where I met you

...

[Spanish]

Te encontré una vez

Bailando sola en una discoteque

Y no sé por qué me enamoré de ti

Al ver tu forma de bailar

Cuando te miré

Tus grandes ojos me hicieron vibrar

Y no pude hablar, parado me quedé

A media pista sin saber qué hacer

A la chica que

Venía conmigo sola la dejé

Ya no supe más

Tomé tus manos y empezamos a bailar

Un poco después

Salimos juntos de la discoteque

Fuimos a cenar y platicando

Fue así como empezó nuestro querer

Pronto descubrí

Que eres la chica para quien nací

Lo supe muy bien, pues nunca antes

Había sentido lo que ahí sentí

La cuenta pagué

Y abandonamos el lugar aquel

Para caminar, pues esa noche

Era perfecta para amar

Al llegar a un parque

Nos sentamos y tu mano yo tomé

Luego te abracé y por primera vez

Con fuerza te besé, te besé

Fue después de un mes

Que te pedí que fueras mi mujer

Me dijiste que sí y nos casamos

Allá en aquella discoteque

Donde te conocí

Donde me enamoré de ti

En la discoteque, donde te conocí

En la discoteque

Donde me enamoré de ti

En la discoteque, donde te conocí
