Translation of the song 40 y 20 artist José José
40 y 20

40 and 20
Mentiras son todas mentiras
Lies are all lies,
Cosas que dice la gente
Things that people say
Decir que este amor es prohibido
Saying that “this love is forbidden”
Que tengo 40 y tu 20
That, I am 40 and you are 20
Que yo soy otoño en tu vida
That, I am an autumn into your life
Y tu eres dulce primavera
And, you are a sweet spring
No saben que guardo un verano
They do not know that I have fire inside
Que cuando te miro te quema
That, when I look at eyes, it burns you

Es el amor lo que importa
It is the “Love”, that is important
Y no lo que diga la gente

Toma mi mano
Take my hand
Camina conmigo
Walk with me
Mirando de frente
Looking ahead
No importa que a mi no me entiendan
Not important they don’t understand me
Y que por lo bajo comenten
And their demeaning comments
Que existe una gran diferencia
That, there is a great disparity
Que tengo 40 y tu 20
That, I am 40 and you are 20.
Que yo tengo muchas vivencias
That, I have lived through a lot
Y tu tienes tanta inocencia
And you have such innocence
No saben que nuestro secreto
They do not know that, our secret
Es tu juventud y mi experiencia
Is, your youth and my experience
