Lyrics
Barrio plateado por la luna, rumores de milonga es toda su fortuna. Hay un fueye que rezonga en la cortada mistonga, mientras que una pebeta, linda como una flor, espera coqueta bajo la quieta luz de un farol. Barrio... barrio.. que tenés el alma inquieta de un gorrión sentimental. Penas...ruego... ¡esto todo el barrio malevo melodía de arrabal! Barrio... barrio... perdoná si al evocarte se me pianta un lagrimón, que al rodar en tu empedrao es un beso prolongao que te da mi corazón. Cuna de tauras y cantores, de broncas y entreveros, de todos mis amores. En tus muros con mi acero yo grabé nombres que quiero. Rosa, 'la milonguita', era rubia Margot, en la primer cita, la paica Rita me dio su amor.
English translation
Barrio silvered by the moon, rumors of milonga is all its fortune. There's a fueye that chirps in the cortada mistonga, while a pebeta, pretty as a flower, waits coquettishly under the still light of a lantern. Neighborhood... neighborhood... you have the restless soul of a sentimental sparrow. Sorrows... I beg... the whole neighborhood suburban melody! Neighborhood... neighborhood... forgive me if by evoking you a tear comes to my eye, that when rolling on your cobblestones is a prolonged kiss that my heart gives you. Cradle of tauras and singers, of quarrels and interlocutions, of all my loves. On your walls with my steel I engraved names that I love. Rosa, 'la milonguita', was blonde Margot, on the first date, the paica Rita gave me her love.
