| Te levantarás despacio
| you will get up slowly
|
| Poco antes de que den las diez
| Just before ten o'clock
|
| Y te alisarás el pelo
| And you will straighten your hair
|
| Que con mis dedos deshilé…
| That with my fingers I unraveled...
|
| Y te abrocharás la falda
| And you will button up your skirt
|
| Y acariciarás mi espalda
| And you will pat my back
|
| Con un «hasta mañana»
| With a "see you tomorrow"
|
| Y te irás sin un reproche
| And you will leave without a reproach
|
| Te perderé con la noche
| I will lose you with the night
|
| Que llama a mi ventana…
| That knocks on my window...
|
| Y bajarás los peldaños
| And you will go down the steps
|
| De dos en dos, de tres en tres
| Two by two, three by three
|
| Ellos te quieren casa
| they want you home
|
| Poco antes de que den las diez
| Just before ten o'clock
|
| Vete
| Leave away
|
| Se hace tarde, vete ya…
| It's getting late, go now...
|
| Vete ya
| Go away
|
| Y, en el umbral de la puerta
| And, on the threshold of the door
|
| — poco antes de que den las diez —
| — shortly before ten o'clock strikes —
|
| Borrarás la última huella
| You will erase the last trace
|
| Que en tu cara olvidé…
| That in your face I forgot...
|
| Y volverás la cabeza
| And you'll turn your head
|
| Y me dirás con tristeza
| And you will tell me sadly
|
| Adiós, desde la esquina
| goodbye, from the corner
|
| Y luego saldrás corriendo…
| And then you'll run away...
|
| La noche te irá envolviendo
| The night will wrap you
|
| En su oscura neblina…
| In its dark haze…
|
| Tu madre abrirá la puerta
| Your mother will open the door
|
| Sonreirá, y os besaréis
| She will smile, and you will kiss
|
| La niña duerme en casa…
| The girl sleeps at home...
|
| Y en un reloj darán las diez | And on a clock it will strike ten |
