UNA MOMENTO 
(Mack david / Martita) (1956)


(Original Spanish version)

En un momento,
Un momentito,
En un instante
Me enamore
Sin esperarlo
Un momentito,
Cruel instante,
Nos separro.

Gozamos de nuestro amor
Mas la dicha ya se fugo
Daria mi vida
Por un momento,
Un momentito cerca de ti.


*****


(English version)
(Mack david / Martita) (1956)


It took one moment,
Una momento,
One sweet moment
To lose my heart.

And then it happened
Una momento,
One sad moment
We were apart.

Together, we were in heaven.
Now heaven has lost its charms.
I'd give the world for
Una momento,
Just one moment
Back in your arms.
