Translation of the song Fumando espero artist Carlos Gardel
Fumando espero
Smoking I Wait
Fumar es un placer, genial, sensual...
To smoke is a brilliant, sensual pleasure...
Fumando espero al hombre que yo quiero,
Smoking I wait for the man I love,
tras los cristales de alegres ventanales
behind the glass of happy large windows.
Y mientras fumo mi vida no consumo
And while I smoke my life I don't consume
porque flotando el humo me suelo adormecer.
because floating the smoke I usually fall to sleep.
Tendida en mi sofá, fumar y amar,
Laying in my sofa, smoking and making love,
ver a mi amado feliz y enamorado,
seeing my loved one happy and enamored,
sentir sus labios besar con besos sabios.
feeling his lips to kiss with wise kisses.
Y el devaneo sentir con más deseo,
And feeling the affair with more desire,
cuando sus ojos siento sedientos de pasión.
when I feel his eyes thirsty with passion.
Por eso estando mi bien
For when my darling is in
es mi fumar un eden.
my smoking is an eden.
Dame el humo de tu boca
Give me the smoke from your mouth
Dame que en mí,
Give me that in me,
pasión provoca.
provokes passion
Corre que quiero
Run that I want
enloquecer de placer,
to go crazy with pleasure,
sintiendo ese calor
feeling that heat
del humo embriagador
of the intoxicating smoke
que acaba por prender
that ends up lighting up
la llama ardiente del amor.
the ardent flame of the love.
La hora de inquietud con él no es cruel
The hour of restlessness with him is not cruel
sus espirales son sueños celestiales,
his spirals are celestial dreams,
y forman nubes que hacia la gloria suben
and they form clouds that towards the glory raise
y envuelta en ella, su chispa es una estrella,
and surrounded in it, his spark is a star,
que luce clara y bella con límpido fulgor.
that shines clear and beautiful with limpid splendour.
