Mulatta

He asked for just a bit of sleep
and they have given him tremors from within.
 
Along the way I sing a bolero1
and he who planned to sing it first,
between walls of an old room,
lost there, in the centre,
He bit his heart and said:
life is a game, it's a dream.
 
If they let her dance
 
tremendous mess,
 
Why look? (2x)
 
Mulatta, mulatta,
 
she dances, dances.
 
A kiss from her is like a cloud
that rises and rises.
 
Like her there are few people who live,
who dream and who laugh,
but you have to find it.
She bought him the moon and fear,
lost there, in the centre,
and with her laughter she yelled in the silence:
Life is a game, it's a game
 
If they let her dance
 
tremendous mess,
 
Why look? (2x)
 
Mulatta, mulatta,
 
she dances, dances.
 
Dancing he found her and said, mine
kept on dancing and still dancing.
 
The fear was killing the days
and the dog laughs from trying so hard,
and inevitably it would end,
lost there, in the centre,
as he was leaving he said in a kiss:
life is a dream.
 
If they let her dance
 
tremendous mess,
 
Why look? (2x)
 
Mulatta, mulatta,
 
she dances, dances.
