Translation of the song lyrics Por Mi Timidez - Anthony Santos

Por Mi Timidez (original)

Mami, aquí está el mayimbe otra vez
Antony Santos
El bachatú, mami, el bachatú
Hace tiempo me gustabas tú
Desde que yo era un niño, amor
Pero te amaba en silencio
No podía enamorarte a ti
No podía enamorarte a ti
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Ahora quisiera hablarte amor
Decirte cosas bonitas
Recordarte aquellos tiempos, nena
Cuando eramos muchachito
Íbamos junto' a la escuela
Esos dos niños solitos, sí
Que tú compraba' un helado
Y me daba' un pedacito a mi
Me mirabas fijamente
Me agarraba mi manito a mi
De mi camisa escolar
Me arrancaba un botoncito, sí
Nos íbamos caminando
Cantándole a mi escuelita, sí
Pero no le puede hablar de amor
Pero no le puede hablar de amor
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
¡Ay mami, aquí está el mayimbe otra vez!
Antony Santos
Es que yo no juego
Mira que chulo, que chévere
Esa negra mía suena lindo, que lindo que suena
Pero tiene mambo
Que chulo, que chévere
Antony Santos
Ahora me quiero casar contigo
Pero tiene compromiso, ay
Ay Dios mio ¿qué sera de mi?
Si yo amo a esa muchachita
Sé que yo tuve la culpa, ay
Por no hablarle palabrita'
Y ahora se que la perdí
Y ahora se que la perdí
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Por mi timidez
Pero seguiré luchando
Aunque el mundo ya no quiera
Aunque la vida se oponga
Lucharé por esa nena
Aunque la vida se oponga
Lucharé por esa nena
Sí, yo lucharé
Sí, yo lucharé
Sí, yo lucharé
Sí, yo lucharé
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
Sí, yo lucharé
Sí, yo lucharé
Sí, yo lucharé
Sí, yo lucharé

Por Mi Timidez (translation)

Mommy, here is the mayimbe again
Anthony Santos
The bachatú, mommy, the bachatú
I liked you a long time ago
Since I was a child, love
But I loved you in silence
I couldn't fall in love with you
I couldn't fall in love with you
for my shyness
for my shyness
for my shyness
for my shyness
Now I would like to talk to you love
tell you nice things
Remind you of those times, baby
when we were little
We used to go to school together
Those two lonely children, yes
That you bought an ice cream
And he gave me a little piece
you stared at me
I grabbed my little hand
of my school shirt
I ripped a little button, yes
we were walking
Singing to my little school, yes
But you can't talk to him about love
But you can't talk to him about love
for my shyness
for my shyness
for my shyness
for my shyness
Oh mommy, here is the mayimbe again!
Anthony Santos
It's that I don't play
Look how cool, how cool
That black girl of mine sounds beautiful, how beautiful she sounds
but he has mambo
How cool, how cool
Anthony Santos
Now I want to marry you
But he has a commitment, oh
Oh my God, what will become of me?
Yes I love that little girl
I know that I was to blame, oh
For not speaking little words to him
And now I know that I lost her
And now I know that I lost her
for my shyness
for my shyness
for my shyness
for my shyness
But I'll keep fighting
Although the world no longer wants
Even if life opposes
I will fight for that girl
Even if life opposes
I will fight for that girl
Yes I will fight
Yes I will fight
Yes I will fight
Yes I will fight
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
uh-uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
Yes I will fight
Yes I will fight
Yes I will fight
Yes I will fight
