Carlos Vives "Carito" lyrics

Translation to:enfr

Carito

Pensaba en estos tiemposde incomprensiones y desencantos,y en tantas buenas razonespara soñar sin desfallecer.

Y pensaba con nostalgiade la inocencia de aquellos años;de esos primeros amoresque al recordar vuelven a nacer.

Y recorro en mi memoriaaquellos tiempos de Carito...Ella era una miss de Boston,que daba clase en la escuela.

Le gustaba el español,y aunque hablaba poquito,tenía esos ojos bonitos,que hablaban muy bien por ella.

Coro

Carito me habla en inglés...Que bonito se le ve.Carito me habla en inglés...Que me dice, yo no sé.

Carlitos don't be like thatNow listen to me.You will pay attention,I need you to write in English,muy perfecto paragraph...and tell me where did you learn.donde tu aprender,to be tan coqueto...remember, nada de fútbol,until you finish that work you have.

Y me daba una sonrisa,y yo me quedaba loquito,y después en el examen,lo ponía todo al revés.

Carito se fue del valle,Yo la recuerdo cantando,Porque me dejo muy triste,Para su tierra se fue.

Coro.

Carito dime que "si",Que no me quiero morir.Carito don't tell me no,Que me muero por tu amor.

Que importa la raza,ampoco idioma...,si al fin lo que cuenta,es lo bueno persona,si es del altiplanoo de tierra caliente,si al fin lo que vale...es que sea buena gente.

Que importa su credo,si es hombre influyente,si al fin lo que cuenta,es la gente decente...No importa si es blanco,si es pobre y famoso,si al fin lo que vale,es que cante sabroso...

Carito

Primer verso First verse

I was thinking of those timesof incomprehensions and disillusionmentsand of so many good reasonsto dream without fainting

And I was thinking with nostalgiaof the innocence of those years;of those first lovesthat when remembered, are born again.

And I remember in my memorythose times of Caritoshe was a "miss" from Bostonthat gave class at the school

She liked Spanishand although she speaked littleshe had those pretty eyesthat talked very well for her

Chorus

Carito talks to me in EnglishHow pretty it looks on herCarito talks to me in EnglishWhat she says to me, I don't know

Second verse

Carlitos don't be like thatNow listen to meYou will pay attentionI need you to write in Englishvery perfect (sp) paragraph (eng)and tell me where did you learnwhere did you learnto be (eng) so flirty (sp)remember, (eng) no soccer (sp)until you finish that work you have

and she would give me a smileand i would remain crazyand afterwards, on the examI put everything backwards

Carito left the valleyI remember her singingBecause she left me very sadShe left for her land

Chorus

Third verse

Carito, tell me whybecause I don't want to dieCarito don't tell me noBecause I die for your love

What importance is raceor language?if at the end, what countsis the good of the person.if they're from a high plateauor from hot land (literal translation)if at the end what mattersis that they are a good person

What importance is their belief?or if they're an influent manif at the end what countsis the decency of the person?It's not important if they're whiteor if they're poor and famousif at the end what mattersis that they sing with taste.
