Tomo y ombligo (original)Tomo y ombligo (translation)
Tomo y obligo, mándese un trago I take and I force, send yourself a drink
Que hoy necesito el recuerdo matar That today I need the memory to kill
Sin un amigo, lejos del pago Without a friend, far from payment
Quiero en su pecho mi pena volcar I want my sorrow to pour out on his chest
Beba conmigo y si se empaña Drink with me and if she gets foggy
De vez en cuando mi voz al cantar From time to time my voice when singing
No es que la llore por que me engaña It's not that I cry for her because she cheats on me
Yo sé que un hombre no debe llorar I know that a man should not cry
Si los pastos conversaran If the grasses conversed
Esa pampa le diría That pampa would tell him
De que modo la quería how she loved her
Con que fiebre la adoré With what fever I adored her
Cuantas veces de rodillas How many times on your knees
Tembloroso yo me he hincado Trembling I have kneeled
Bajo el árbol deshojado under the leafless tree
Donde un día la besé Where one day I kissed her
Y hoy al verla envilecida And today seeing her degraded
A otros brazos entregada To other arms delivered
Fue «pa» mi una puñalada She was "pa" me a stab
Y de celos me cegué And I was blinded by jealousy
Y le juro todavía And I swear to you still
No consigo comprenderme I can't understand myself
Cómo pude contenerme how could i hold back
Y ahi nomás no la maté And there I just didn't kill her
Tomo y obligo, mándese un trago I take and I force, send yourself a drink
De las mujeres mejor no hay que hablar It is better not to talk about women
Todas, amigo, dan muy mal pago All of them, my friend, pay very poorly
Hoy mi experiencia lo puede afirmar Today my experience can affirm it
Siga un consejo, no se enamore Take advice, don't fall in love
Y si una vuelta le toca hocicar And if a lap has to muzzle
Fuerza canejo, sufra y no llore Force canejo, suffer and don't cry
Que un hombre macho no debe llorarThat a macho man shouldn't cry
