(English)

Naranja dulce
Limón partido
dame un abrazo
que yo te pido.

Si fueran falsos
mis juramentos,
en un momento
se olvidarán.

Toca la marcha,
mi pecho llora,
adiós señora,
que ya me voy
adiós señora,
que ya me voy.

Sweet orange,
Sliced lemon too,
Give me the hug
I ask from you.

If my oaths
Were untrue,
In just a wink
You'd forget them.

A march is playing,
My heart is crying,
Farewell my lady
Away I'm going,
Farewell my lady
Away I'm going.
