Translation of the song lyrics Muchacho - Adriana Varela

Muchacho (original)

Muchacho
Que por que la suerte quiso
Vivis en un primer piso
De un palacete central
Que para vicios y placeres
Para farras y mujeres
Dispones de un capital
Muchacho
Que no sabes el encanto
De haber derramado llanto
Sobre un pecho de mujer
Que no sabes que es secarse
En una timba y armarse
Para volverse a meter
Que decis que un tango rante
No te hace perder la calma
Y que no te llora el alma
Cuando gime un bandoneon;
Que si tenes sentimiento
Lo tenens adormecido
Pues todo lo has conseguido
Pagando como un chabon
Decime
Si en tu vida pelandruna
Bajo la luz de la luna
O si no bajo un farol
Vos te has sentido poeta
Y le has dicho a una pebeta
Que era más linda que el sol
Decime
Si conoces la armonia
La dulce policromia
De las tardes de arrabal
Cuando van las fabriqueras
Tentadoras y diqueras
Bajo el sonoro percal

(translation)

Young guy
That because luck wanted
You live on the first floor
Of a central mansion
That for vices and pleasures
For parties and women
You have a capital
Young guy
That you don't know the charm
of having shed tears
On a woman's breast
That you don't know what it is to dry up
In a timba and arm yourself
to get back in
What do you say that a tango rante
Doesn't make you lose your cool
And that your soul doesn't cry
When a bandoneon moans;
What if you have feeling
you keep it numb
Well, you have achieved everything
Paying like a kid
Tell me
If in your pelandruna life
under the moonlight
Or else under a lantern
You have felt like a poet
And you told a pebeta
That she was prettier than the sun
Tell me
If you know the harmony
The sweet polychrome
Of the suburb afternoons
When the factories go
Temptresses and diqueras
Under the sonorous percale
