A translation, more literal than poetic, to English:
BB,
NightWing
Tu y yo,
You and I
Copas y un viejo rincón
Cups in an old bar [drinking in a dive bar]
Cuando la noche apagaba su voz,
When you lowered your voice in the night
No supe decir que no.
I did not know how to say no
Charlatán como te pude creer,
[You are only a] Charlatan [Liar] but I believe you
Cuando llega el momento de acción,
But when it comes to action
Por la boca muere el pez.
In your mouth the fish dies [??? You talk big but can't perform?]
Por eso chico...
So, Boy ...
Estribillo.
Chorus
Déjalo ya
Give it up
No hay que insistir,
I don't have to tell you
Tu galanteo no me hace feliz
Your gallantry does not please me
Sólo una noche
Only one night
Y ya vez que soy
And already I'm
Mucha mujer para ti.
Too much woman for you.
Mucho hablar
You talk so much
En eso eres el mejor
That you're the best
Yo te prometo que bajo mi piel
I promise you that under my skin
Escondido esta un león
Is hidden, a lion
Un león y un volcán en erupción
A lion and an erupting volcano
Tonta de mí te creí y encontré
I was foolish to believe you and found
Un torero de salón.
[Only] A bullfighter's lounge [a place for big talkers who can't back up their words?]
Por eso chico...
So, Boy ...
Repetir estribillo.
Repeat Chorus
Puente.
Bridge
Decisión, fuerza y coraje también
[You demonstrate?] Decision, strength, and courage also
Pero la vida es a veces cruel,
But life is sometimes cruel
Querer no es siempre poder,
Willing is not always able [WHOA!! That's cold! Chalk one up for the lady! :) ]
Por eso chico...
So, Boy ...
Repetir estribillo.
Repeat Chorus
Hablado:
Spoken:
No hay que insistir
I don't have to tell you
Ohh tonta que fui...
Ohh I was so foolish
Ohh, Uhh.
Ohh, Uhh
