Los cien barrios porteños [English translation]

I wanted to give to the neighbourhoods

a sincere love tribute

and I can't find a prettier reason

than giving it in a song.

Each one brings me a memory,

each one gives me an emotion;

I wanted to give to the neighbourhoods

a sincere love tribute.

Barracas, La Boca, Boedo,

Belgrano, Palermo, Saavedra and Liniers,

Urquiza, Pompeya, Patricios,

San Telmo and Flores,

my yesterday neighbourhood,

Balvanera, Caballito,

Villa Luro and Montserrat,

Villa Crespo, Almagro and Lugano,

Matadero and Paternal.

I am part of my people

and I owe them what I am;

I talk with their same verb

and I sing with their same voice.

A hundred Buenos Aires hoods,

A hundred love hoods,

A hundred hoods stuck

in my heart.
