Anita [English translation]

I found her on her own, somewhere in Mexico

Anita, (Anita)

Her hair was black

Her eyes shone like two stars, so bright

"Climb up on your horse", so said I to her

Anita, (Anita)

There's a fiesta tonight

The town's not very far

Get ready quickly

I look at you: a volcano slumbers there

You are waiting for love

I want to inspire it

And to discover all no one saw before

Ohohoho

Ride on like the wind, until the night begins

Anita, (Anita)

Soon we'll be there and all will get to see

How well we get on

Musicians come around,

Play a song for us both

With music and with wine

We'll be happy tonight

I found her on her own, somewhere in Mexico

Anita, (Anita)

Her hair was black

Her eyes shone like two stars, so bright

I'll build, for us, a nest

Where we may enjoy life

Anita, (Anita)

In Mexico, because with you alone

I want to stay for all time

And around us they sat and were most quiet,

With their eyes so wide

The compañeros with their sombreros

Because now you belong to me

Ohohoho

This isn't a night that is made for sleep

Anita, (Anita)

For such a ball was never seen before

Here in Mexico

Musicians come around,

Play a song for us both

With music and with wine

We'll be happy tonight

[Chorus]
