Lyrics
Muñeca, muñequita que hablás con zeta
y que con gracia posta batís mishé;
que con tus aspavientos de pandereta
sos la milonguerita de más chiqué;
trajeada de bacana, bailás con corte
y por raro snobismo tomás prissé,
y que en auto camba, de sur a norte,
paseás como una dama de gran cachet.

Che papusa, oí
los acordes melodiosos que modula el bandoneón;
Che papusa, oí
los latidos angustiosos de tu pobre corazón;
Che papusa, oí
cómo surgen de este tango los pasajes de tu ayer...
Si entre el lujo del ambiente
hoy te arrastra la corriente,
mañana te quiero ver...

Milonguerita linda, papusa y breva,
con ojos picarescos de pippermint,
de parla afranchutada, pinta maleva
y boca pecadora color carmín,
engrupen tus alhajas en la milonga
con regio faroleo brillanteril
y al bailar esos tangos de meta y ponga
volvés otario al vivo y al rana gil.
English translation
Doll, little doll that you speak with a zeta
and who gracefully batís mishé;
that with your tambourine-like gestures
you are the youngest milonguerita;
dressed in a bacana suit, you dance with court
and by rare snobbery you take prissé,
and that in car camba, from south to north,
you walk like a lady of great cachet.

Che papusa, I heard
the melodious chords that the bandoneon modulates;
Che papusa, I heard
the anguished beats of your poor heart;
Che papusa, I heard
how the passages of your yesterday emerge from this tango...
If among the luxury of the environment
today you are dragged by the current,
tomorrow I want to see you...

Milonguerita linda, papusa and breva,
with mischievous eyes of pippermint,
with a fruity talk, a wicked face
and sinful carmine-colored mouth,
your jewels in the milonga
with regal brillanterile faroleo
and when you dance those tangos of meta and ponga
you turn the live and the rana gil.
