Porom, pom-pom, porom

Porom, pom-pom, porom
Porom, pom-pom
Aquella noche de verano cuando estabas junto a mí
That summer night when you were by my side
Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom, porom
Yo te miraba suplicando me robaras el corazón
I looked at you pleading for you to steal my heart
Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom, porom
Yo quise amarte
I wanted to love you
Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom, porom
Y tú, indiferente
And you, indifferent
Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom
Hoy quiero cantarte una canción de amor
Today I want to sing you a love song
Y poner en ella toda mi emoción
And put into it all my emotion
Tú, tú me engañabas al decir que no
You, you deceived me by saying no
Amor, quiero cantarte una canción

Tú me engañabas al decir que no
You deceived me by saying no
Y yo no adivinaba la razón
And I couldn't guess the reason
Te protegías a tu modo, pero yo no supe ver

Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom, porom
Que tú pensabas que es el hombre quien conquista a la mujer

Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom, porom
Yo te miraba
I was watching you
Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom, porom
Y tú me ignorabas
And you ignored me
Porom, pom-pom, porom, porom, pom-pom
Hoy quiero cantarte una canción de amor
Today I want to sing you a love song
Y poner en ella toda mi emoción

Tú, tú me engañabas al decir que no
You, you deceived me when you said no
Amor, quiero cantarte una canción

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
¡Sí!, deja que vuele tu imaginación
Yes!, let your imagination fly
¡Sí!, mientras te canto mi canción
Yes!, while I sing you my song
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Y deja que vuele tu imaginación
And let your imagination fly
¡Sí!, mientras te canto mi canción
Yes!, while I sing you my song
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
