Translation of the song lyrics La Fonda - Victor Jara

La Fonda (original)

Estaba un rotito un día
En una fonda tomando
Una cantora cantando
Lo miraba y se reía
El rotito se fijó
En la risueña cantora
Y en el acto, sin demora
Una copa le sirvió
Y le dijo: amada mía
En tus brazos me durmiera
Si me conseguís tu amor
Dulces besitos te diera
La cantora se reía
Del besito que le dio
Y el rotito le pidió
Media 'ocena 'e botellas
Por fin que a la doncella
Medio cura' la tenía
Y le dijo si podía
Acompañarla un poquito
Y ella dándole un besito
Lo miraba y se reía
Por fin que’el roto tomó
La doncella de una mano
Y con ella muy ufano
De la fonda se salió
Pa’l monte se encaminó
Donde tendió su mantita
Y en ella se recostó
Muy feliz la mujercita
Para toda la compaña
Cogollito 'e verde planta
Cuando vaigan a una fonda
No se olviden de la manta

(translation)

I was a broken one day
In a fonda drinking
a singer singing
She looked at him and she laughed
The rotito was fixed
In the laughing singer
And on the spot, without delay
A drink served him
And she told him: my love
In your arms I fell asleep
If you get me your love
Sweet kisses I would give you
the singer laughed
Of the little kiss that she gave him
And the rotito asked him
Half 'ocena 'and bottles
At last that to the maiden
Half a cure 'had it
And she told him if she could
accompany her a little
And she giving him a little kiss
She looked at him and laughed
Finally that'the broken took
The one-handed maiden
And with her very proud
He left the inn
Pa'l monte headed
where she laid out her blanket
And in it he lay down
Very happy little woman
for the whole company
Cogollito 'and green plant
When they go to a fonda
Don't forget the blanket
