Gitana [English translation]

I never wore a mask

I'm just passing

Through this fleeting world

I don't intend to stop

Tell me, who walks

when you can fly?

My fate is to walk

My memories

Are just a trail on the sea

What I have, I give away

I speak my mind

Take me as I am

And there it goes, lightly,

My gypsy heart

That only knows about beating

Against the current

Don't try to tie me

Nor dominate me

I'm the one that chooses

How to make mistakes

Take the most of me

Because if I arrived here yesterday

I could go away tomorrow

Because I'm a gypsy

Because I'm a gypsy

I'm still an apprentice

In every kiss

And with every scar

I was able to understand something

From tripping so much

I already know how to fall

And there it goes, lightly,

My gypsy heart

That only knows about beating

Against the current

Don't try to tie me

Nor dominate me

I'm the one that chooses

How to make mistakes

Take the most of me

Because if I arrived here yesterday

I could go away tomorrow

Because I'm a gypsy

Let's go and we'll see..

That life is enjoyment

It's normal to be afraid

Of what's unknown to you

Take me and let's go

Because life is enjoyment

It's normal to be afraid

Of what's unknown to you

I want to see you fly

I want to see you fly

And there it goes, lightly,

My gypsy heart

That only knows about beating

Against the current

Don't try to tie me

Nor dominate me

I'm the one that chooses

How to make mistakes

Take the most of me

Because if I arrived here yesterday

I could go away tomorrow

Because I'm a gypsy
