Translation

Iba sola por la calle

I was walking alone on the street

Cuando vino de pronto

When suddenly

Un apagón

A blackout

Vale mas que yo me calle

It's better for me to keep quiet

La aventura que a mi me sucedió

The adventure that happened to me

Me tomaron por el talle

They grabbed me by the waist

Me llevaron al cubo de un Zaguán

They took me to the corner of a hallway

Y en aquella oscura calle

And in that dark street

Ay, que me sucedió.

Oh, what happened to me


Con el apagón....que cosas suceden

With the blackout... what things happen

Que cosas suceden..... con el apagón

What things happen... with the blackout

Con el apagón....que cosas suceden

With the blackout... what things happen

Que cosas suceden..... con el apagón

What things happen... with the blackout


Me quede muy quietecita en aquella

I stayed very still in that

Terrible oscuridad

Terrible darkness

Y una mano ay! Ligerita

And a hand, oh! Swiftly

Me palpo con confianza y libertad

It touched me with confidence and freedom

Si el peligro estaba arriba

If the danger was above

Acá abajo la cosa andaba peor

Down here things were worse

Fue tan fuerte la ofensiva

The offensive was so strong

¡Ay!...... Que me sucedió

Oh!... What happened to me


Y sin ver al enemigo en aquella terrible oscuridad

And without seeing the enemy in that terrible darkness

Me quitaron el abrigo

They took off my coat

El sombrero y ....... ¡que barbaridad!

The hat and... what a barbarity!

Yo pensaba en el castigo

I thought about the punishment

Que a aquel fresco

That to that cheeky one

Enseguida le iba a dar

I was going to give right away

Cuando encendieron las luces

When they turned on the lights

¡Ay!...... era mi papa.

Oh!... it was my dad


Con el apagón....que cosas suceden

With the blackout... what things happen

Que cosas suceden..... con el apagón

What things happen... with the blackout

Con el apagón....que cosas suceden

With the blackout... what things happen

Que cosas suceden..... con el apagón

What things happen... with the blackout
