Carito [English translation]

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.
