Una copa, mi amigo
One drink, my friend
Una copa
One drink
Me han deja'o solito y triste
They've left me all alone and sad
En la Navidad

Una copa, mi hermano
One drink, my brother
Una copa
One drink
Para ahogar mis penas
To drown my sorrows
En la Navidad
At Christmas time
Pequeña
Little one
Échate pa' acá
Come closer
Una copa, mi amigo
One drink, my friend
Una copa
One drink
Me han deja'o solito y triste
They've left me all alone and sad
En la Navidad
At Christmas time
Una copa, mi hermano
One drink, my brother
Una copa
One drink
Para ahogar mis penas
To drown my sorrows
En la Navidad
At Christmas time
