La flaca [English translation]

During my lifetime I met a woman,

just like the skinny one,

coral black from La Habana,

a spectacular "mulatta"

One-hundred pounds of skin and bones,

forty kilos of salsa

and two _____ on her face,

that speak without words,

that speak without words.

The Skinny Woman sleeps all day,

she says that's how you trick hunger,

when night falls,

she comes out to dance a la Tasca

and to dance and to dance,

and to drink and to drink

one beer after the other,

but she never puts on weight,

but she never puts on weight

I would give anything

for a kiss from The Skinny Woman.

for one of her kisses,

even if it were only one

I would give anything

for a kiss from The Skinny Woman.

for one of her kisses,

even if it were only one

...even if it were only one.

I wet my white sheets

as the song says

remembering the caresses

that she gave me the first day

And the desire to sleep by her side

is making me crazy,

because, my God,

this woman has made me crazy!

(this woman) has made me crazy!

I would give anything

for a kiss from The Skinny Woman.

for one of her kisses,

even if it were only one

I would give anything

for a kiss from The Skinny Woman.

for one of her kisses,

even if it were only one

...even if it were only one. (x6)
