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.
