Carito
Primer verso First verse I was thinking of those times of incomprehensions and disillusionments and of so many good reasons to dream without fainting And I was thinking with nostalgia of the innocence of those years; of those first loves that when remembered, are born again. And I remember in my memory those times of Carito she was a "miss" from Boston that gave class at the school She liked Spanish and although she speaked little she had those pretty eyes that talked very well for her Chorus Carito talks to me in English How pretty it looks on her Carito talks to me in English What she says to me, I don't know Second verse Carlitos don't be like that Now listen to me You will pay attention I need you to write in English very perfect (sp) paragraph (eng) and tell me where did you learn where did you learn to be (eng) so flirty (sp) remember, (eng) no soccer (sp) until you finish that work you have and she would give me a smile and i would remain crazy and afterwards, on the exam I put everything backwards Carito left the valley I remember her singing Because she left me very sad She left for her land Chorus Third verse Carito, tell me why because I don't want to die Carito don't tell me no Because I die for your love What importance is race or language? if at the end, what counts is the good of the person. if they're from a high plateau or from hot land (literal translation) if at the end what matters is that they are a good person What importance is their belief? or if they're an influent man if at the end what counts is the decency of the person? It's not important if they're white or if they're poor and famous if at the end what matters is that they sing with taste.
Carito
Pensaba yo en estos tiempos De incompresiones y desencantos Y en tantas buenas razones Para soñar sin desfallecer Y pensaba con nostalgia En la inocencia de aquellos años De esos primeros amores Que al recordar vuelven a nacer Y recuerdo en mi memoria Aquellos tiempos de Carito Ella era una miss de Boston Que daba clase en la escuela Le gustaba el español Y aunque lo hablaba poquito Tenía esos ojos bonitos Que hablaban muy bien por ella refrein: Carito me habla en inglés Que bonito se le ve Carito me habla en inglés Que me dice yo no se Carito me habla en inglés Que bonito se le ve Carito me habla en inglés Que me dice yo no se Carlitos don't be like that Now listen to me You will pay attention I need you to write in english Muy perfecto parragraph And tell me where did you learn Donde tu aprender to be tan coqueto Remeber nada de futbol Until you finish the work you have Y me daba una sonrisa Y yo quedaba loquito Y despues en el examen Lo ponía todo al reves Carito se fue del valle Yo la recuerdo cantando Porque me dejo muy triste Para su tierra se fue refrein Te llevaría para mi tierra Carito dime que si Que no me quiero morir Carito don't tell me no Que me muero por tu amor Carito dime que si Que no me quiero morir Carito don't tell me no Que me muero por tu amor Que importa la raza Tampoco el idioma Si al fin lo que cuenta Es lo buena persona Si es del altiplano O de tierra caliente Si al fin lo que vale Es que sea buena gente Que importa su credo Si es hombre de influyente Si al fin lo que cuenta Es la gente decente No importa si es blanco Si es pobre o famoso Si al fin lo que vale Es que cante sabroso
