Hotel California [English translation]

On the desert highway

The wind disheveles me

It was the scent of 'colitas'

Moon, nobody's moon

Far away

A light twinkles

I have the idea of

Sleeping for the night

She was at the entrance

And the bell was ringing

And I told myself

It is the down under or heaven.

She holds a candle

That shows the way;

It was a voice in the corridor

What they indicate, said:

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place

And next to it, she had

a Mercedes that shone,

Surrounded by handsome boys

She called friends.

When they dance slowly

Summer perfumes

Were to remember

And others to forget.

I asked the captain

To serve the wine

And told me that he

Hasn't had alcohol since

sixty-nine.

The voices calling me

wake me up later

At night to say:

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place

A mirror on the ceiling,

Champagne on the ice,

And she said: 'We are all prisoners

Of own will'.

And in the main rooms

Parties are made.

Here is the beast,

But they can't kill it.

My last memory

I ran to the door.

I saw a candle on the road

Where I had arrived.

'Relax', said the doorman.

'For me it is only receiving.

You can leave when you want,

But I'll never leave'.

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place
