Suavecito
Ricardo ArjonaLyrics
Translation
Suavecito me pusiste todo en su lugar
Gently, you put everything in its place for me
suavecito, como juego para armar
Gently, like a puzzle to assemble
empezaste corrigiendo males al azar
You began fixing random evils
como al barro el alfarero, como brisa de aguacero
Like the potter to the clay, like a shower's breeze
conquistaste, suavecito.
You conquered gently
Colocaste besos justamente en el lugar
You placed kisses exactly in the right place
suavecitos, cirugía para curar
Gently, surgery to heal
las heridas que dejo el pasado sin sanar
The wounds that the past left unhealed
y en el caos de mi infierno instalaste tu gobierno
And in the chaos of my hell, you installed your government
y arrasaste suavecito.
And you swept through gently
Suavecito, fuiste casi imperceptible
Gently, you were almost imperceptible
sin prisas de a poquito
Without haste, bit by bit
colocaste tu bandera inamovible,
You placed your immovable flag
suavecito, fuiste tan demoledora
Gently, you were so devastating
pasito con pasito
Step by step
tu paciencia arrolladora me salvo
Your overwhelming patience saved me
suavecito.
Gently
Suavecito fui ganando con saber perder
Gently, I was winning by knowing how to lose
suavecito sin afanes de imponer
Gently, without the urge to impose
con la calma que viene del tacto de mujer
With the calm that comes from a woman's touch
como huella de gaviota, como se forma una gota
Like a seagull's footprint, like a droplet forms
me atrapaste suavecito.
You caught me gently
Me aceptaste como un cero izquierdo y sin valor
You accepted me like a worthless left zero
me peleaste sin nada a tu favor
You fought for me with nothing in your favor
con la suavidad con la que se mueve un rumor,
With the softness of a rumor, with the step of an elder
con el paso de un anciano, con paciencia de artesano,
With the patience of an artisan
me salvaste, suavecito.
You saved me gently
Suavecito, fuiste casi imperceptible
Gently, you were almost imperceptible
sin prisas de a poquito
Without haste, bit by bit
colocaste tu bandera inamovible,
You placed your immovable flag
suavecito, fuiste tan demoledora
Gently, you were so devastating
pasito con pasito
Step by step
tu paciencia arrolladora me salvo
Your overwhelming patience saved me
suavecito.
Gently
