Letra del Tango Dos palabras por favor

Dos palabras,
me permite por favor.
Quiero hablarle
de mis sueños y mi amor.
Dos años viéndola
pasar por mi balcón,
sintiendo el corazón
romperme el pecho.
Mil veces quise hablar
y al fin hoy me animé,
le ruego nos se vaya,
escúcheme.

Yo soy un pobre muchacho que la adora,
bordando sueños con hilos de ilusión.
Sus ojos son para mí como una aurora,
su boca una esperanza y una canción.
Cuando la miro pasar por la vereda,
con su cadencia, su gracia y su vaivén,
quiero gritarle un piropo y se me enreda
la voz que, en un suspiro, sueña también.

Le ruego nada más,
en ésta noche azul,
me deje su sonrisa,
para soñar.

English lyrics of the Tango "Dos palabras por favor"

Two words,
please allow me.
I want to talk to you
about my dreams and my love.
Two years watching you
pass by my balcony,
feeling my heart
break my chest.
A thousand times I wanted to speak
and today I finally dared,
I beg you don’t leave,
listen to me.

I am a poor boy who adores you,
weaving dreams with threads of illusion.
Your eyes are to me like a dawn,
your mouth a hope and a song.
When I see you walk down the street,
with your rhythm, your grace, and your sway,
I want to shout a compliment and it tangles
the voice that, in a sigh, dreams too.

I beg nothing more,
on this blue night,
leave me your smile,
to dream.
