I wanted to give to the neighbourhoods
a sincere love tribute
and I can't find a prettier reason
than giving it in a song.
Each one brings me a memory,
each one gives me an emotion;
I wanted to give to the neighbourhoods
a sincere love tribute.
Barracas, La Boca, Boedo,
Belgrano, Palermo, Saavedra and Liniers,
Urquiza, Pompeya, Patricios,
San Telmo and Flores,
my yesterday neighbourhood,
Balvanera, Caballito,
Villa Luro and Montserrat,
Villa Crespo, Almagro and Lugano,
Matadero and Paternal.
I am part of my people
and I owe them what I am;
I talk with their same verb
and I sing with their same voice.
A hundred Buenos Aires hoods,
A hundred love hoods,
A hundred hoods stuck
in my heart.
