...e allora mambo! [English translation]

Here we are

We play, you are there

we sweat, you already drink

we suffer, you laugh, but

she, too, that night

laughed and looked sincere

she had heels, pins, ears,

rings, friends, and firecrackers

she looked at me confidently,

and if you saw me, I looked terrible

but she whispers in my ear

come on, let's go down to dance

and so, mambo

sweaty mambo

mind the rhythm

or I will stumble

thigh rubbing against thigh

crawling, looking like a viper

a bold kiss on the neck

rub and leave it where the sun doesn't shine

afterward, we

leave stumbling, a taxi and then

at my place, night is short and she

says tonight I can't but

tomorrow I'm going to give you

that happiness that can't be changed

that pounds in your hear and doesn't make you suffer

the thigh I give you is for loving

and my foot against yours

I use it to dance

and so, mambo

sweaty mambo

mind the rhythm

or I will stumble

thigh rubbing against thigh

crawling looking like a viper

a bold kiss on the neck

rub and leave it where the sun doesn't shine

and so, mambo

playful mambo

I am sweating

pushing the stem...
