Que bonitos ojos tienes
What beautiful eyes you have
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Underneath those two eyebrows
Debajo dé esas dos cejas
Underneath those two eyebrows
Que bonitos ojos tienes
What beautiful eyes you have
Ellos me quieren mirar
They want to gaze at me
Pero si tu no los dejás
But if you don't let them
Pero si tu no los dejás
But if you don't let them
Ni siquiera parpadear
Not even to blink
Malagueña salerosa
Charming Malagueña
Besar tus labios quisiera
I would like to kiss your lips
Besar tus labios quisiera
I would like to kiss your lips
Malagueña salerosa
Charming Malagueña
Y decirte niña hermosa
And tell you, beautiful girl
Que eres linda y hechicera
That you are lovely and enchanting
Que eres linda y hechicera
That you are lovely and enchanting
Como el candor de una rosa
Like the innocence of a rose
Si por pobre me desprecias
If you despise me for being poor
Yo te concedo razón
I concede you are right
Yo te concedo razón
I concede you are right
Si por pobre me desprecias
If you despise me for being poor
Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
I don't offer you riches
Te ofrezco mi corazón
I offer you my heart
Te ofrezco mi corazón
I offer you my heart
A cambio de mis pobrezas
In exchange for my poverty
Malagueña salerosa
Charming Malagueña
Besar tus labios quisiera
I would like to kiss your lips
Besar tus labios quisiera
I would like to kiss your lips
Malagueña salerosa
Charming Malagueña
Y decirte niña hermosa
And tell you, beautiful girl
Que eres linda y hechicera
That you are lovely and enchanting
Eres linda y hechicera
You are lovely and enchanting
Como el candor de una rosa
Like the innocence of a rose
Como el candor de una rosa
Like the innocence of a rose
