Translation of the song lyrics Suavecito - Ricardo Arjona

Suavecito (original)

Suavecito me pusiste todo en su lugar
suavecito, como juego para armar
como al barro el alfarero, como brisa de aguacero
conquistaste, suavecito.
Colocaste besos justamente en el lugar
suavecitos, cirugía para curar
las heridas que dejo el pasado sin sanar
y en el caos de mi infierno instalaste tu gobierno
y abrazaste suavecito.
Suavecito, fuiste casi imperceptible
sin prisas de a poquito
colocaste tu bandera inamovible,
suavecito, fuiste tan demoledora
pasito con pasito
tu paciencia arrolladora me salvo
suavecito.
Suavecito fui ganando con saber perder
suavecito sin afanes de imponer
con la calma que viene del tacto de mujer
como huella de gaviota, como se forma una gota
me atrapaste suavecito.
Me aceptaste como un cero izquierdo y sin valor
me peleaste sin nada a tu favor
con la suavidad con la que se mueve un rumor,
con el paso de un anciano, con paciencia de artesano,
me salvaste, suavecito.
Suavecito, fuiste casi imperceptible
sin prisas de a poquito
colocaste tu bandera inamovible,
suavecito, fuiste tan demoledora
pasito con pasito
tu paciencia arrolladora me salvo
suavecito.

Suavecito (translation)

Softly you put everything in its place
softly, as a game to assemble
like the potter to the clay, like a downpour breeze
You conquered, sweetie.
You placed kisses right on the spot
suavecitos, surgery to cure
the wounds that the past left unhealed
and in the chaos of my hell you installed your government
and you hugged softly.
Gentle, you were almost imperceptible
unhurried little by little
you placed your immovable flag,
softly, you were so devastating
step by step
your overwhelming patience saved me
softly.
Softly I was winning with knowing how to lose
suavecito without eagerness to impose
with the calm that comes from the touch of a woman
like a seagull's footprint, how a drop is formed
you caught me softly.
You accepted me as a zero left and worthless
you fought me with nothing in your favor
with the smoothness with which a rumor moves,
with the step of an old man, with the patience of a craftsman,
you saved me, sweetie.
Gentle, you were almost imperceptible
unhurried little by little
you placed your immovable flag,
softly, you were so devastating
step by step
your overwhelming patience saved me
softly.
