Original text with translation
Carlos Gardel
Tomo y obligo, mándese un trago
Que hoy necesito el recuerdo matar
Sin un amigo, lejos del pago
Quiero en su pecho mi pena volcar
Beba conmigo y si se empaña
De vez en cuando mi voz al cantar
No es que la llore por que me engaña
Yo sé que un hombre no debe llorar
Si los pastos conversaran
Esa pampa le diría
De que modo la quería
Con que fiebre la adoré
Cuantas veces de rodillas
Tembloroso yo me he hincado
Bajo el árbol deshojado
Donde un día la besé
Y hoy al verla envilecida
A otros brazos entregada
Fue «pa» mi una puñalada
Y de celos me cegué
Y le juro todavía
No consigo comprenderme
Cómo pude contenerme
Y ahi nomás no la maté
Tomo y obligo, mándese un trago
De las mujeres mejor no hay que hablar
Todas, amigo, dan muy mal pago
Hoy mi experiencia lo puede afirmar
Siga un consejo, no se enamore
Y si una vuelta le toca hocicar
Fuerza canejo, sufra y no llore
Que un hombre macho no debe llorar
I take and I force, send yourself a drink
That today I need the memory to kill
Without a friend, far from payment
I want my sorrow to pour out on his chest
Drink with me and if she gets foggy
From time to time my voice when singing
It's not that I cry for her because she cheats on me
I know that a man should not cry
If the grasses conversed
That pampa would tell him
how she loved her
With what fever I adored her
How many times on your knees
Trembling I have kneeled
under the leafless tree
Where one day I kissed her
And today seeing her degraded
To other arms delivered
She was "pa" me a stab
And I was blinded by jealousy
And I swear to you still
I can't understand myself
how could i hold back
And there I just didn't kill her
I take and I force, send yourself a drink
It is better not to talk about women
All of them, my friend, pay very poorly
Today my experience can affirm it
Take advice, don't fall in love
And if a lap has to muzzle
Force canejo, suffer and don't cry
That a macho man shouldn't cry
