Translation of the song lyrics A Media Luz - Carlos Gardel

A Media Luz (original)

Corrientes tres cuatro ocho
Segundo piso, ascensor;
No hay porteros ni vecinos
Adentro, cocktel y amor
Pisito que puso Maple
Piano, estera y velador…
Un telefon que contesta
Una fonola que llora
Viejos tangos de mi flor
Y un gato de porcelana
Pa que no maulle al amor
Y todo a media luz
Que es un brujo el amor
A media luz los besos
A media luz los dos…
Y todo a media luz
Crepusculo interior
Que suave terciopelo
La media luz de amor
Juncal doce veinticuatro
Telefonea sin temor;
De tarde, te con masitas
De noche, tango y amor;
Los domingos, te danzante
Los lunes, desolacion
Hay de todo en la casita:
Almohadones y divanes
Como en botica… coco
Alfombras que no hacen ruido
Y mesa puesta al amor…

A Media Luz (translation)

Currents three four eight
Second floor, elevator;
There are no gatekeepers or neighbors
Inside, cocktail and love
Little flat that Maple put
Piano, mat and nightstand…
A phone that answers
a phonola that cries
Old tangos of my flower
And a porcelain cat
So that I don't meow at love
And everything in half light
What is love a sorcerer
At half light the kisses
At half light the two...
And everything in half light
inner twilight
what soft velvet
The half light of love
Juncal twelve twenty four
Phone without fear;
In the afternoon, tea with dumplings
At night, tango and love;
On Sundays, you dance
Mondays, desolation
There is everything in the house:
Cushions and divans
As in apothecary... coconut
Rugs that don't make noise
And a table set for love...
