Pa' diglielo a ma' [English translation]

My days are all the same

like rosary beads.

I’m tired of praying,

I have no holidays.

I don’t want to lose the boy

who loves me to death.

I can distinguish good from bad,

tonight I’ll be leaving with him.

Dad tell it to mom

that I’m carrying her in my heart,

that I won’t forget her.

Dad, they told me that you,

at my age,

were going crazy for mom.

Forgive me, mom.

Forgive me, dad,

(it’s) now or never.

Love is like that,

life is like that.

My boyfriend will come around,

I’m sure you’ll like him.

He’s a true man and is courageous

and knows that I too will help him.

There’s a white veil that’s waiting.

What more can I ask for?

The sweet dream of one night

for me is becoming truth.

Dad tell it to mom

that I’m carrying her in my heart,

that I won’t forget her.

Dad, they told me that you,

at my age,

were going crazy for mom.

Forgive me, mom.

Forgive me, dad,

(it’s) now or never.

Love is like that,

life is like that.

The rose blooms in one night,

just once and then never again.

My life starts now,

springtime is waiting for me.

Dad tell it to mom

that I’m carrying her in my heart,

that I won’t forget her.

Dad, they told me that you,

at my age,

were going crazy for mom.

Forgive me, mom.

Forgive me, dad,

(it’s) now or never.

Love is like that,

life is like that.
