Gitana [English translation]

I never used a mask

I'll pass

Through this fleeting world

I don't pretend to stop

Tell me, who walks

When they can fly?

My destiny is to walk

My memories

Are only a wake in the sea

What I have, I give

I say what I think

Take me as I am

And it's fickle

My gypsy heart

That only understands by beating

The opposite

Don't try to tie me up

Or dominate me

I am who chooses

How to mess up

Take advantage of me

'Cause if I arrived yesterday

I can leave tomorrow

'Cause I'm a gypsy

I continue being a devil

In each kiss

And with each scar

I could understand something

So much that I stumble

I already know how to fall

And it's fickle

My gypsy heart

That only understands by beating

The opposite

Don't try to tie me up

Or dominate me

I am who chooses

How to mess up

Take advantage of me

'Cause if I arrived yesterday

I can leave tomorrow

'Cause I'm a gypsy

Let's go and see

'Cause life is a joy

It's normal to be afraid

Of what isn't familiar to you

Take me and let's go

'Cause life is a joy

It's normal to be afraid

Of what isn't familiar to you

I want to see you fly

I want to see you fly

And it's fickle

My gypsy heart

That only understands by beating

The opposite

Don't try to tie me up

Or dominate me

I am who chooses

How to mess up

Take advantage of me

'Cause if I arrived yesterday

I can leave tomorrow

'Cause I'm a gypsy
