Esta rumba a ta gitana
Que yo siempre cantare
Pero yo siempre cantare

Que yo siempre cantare

Que solo vivo enamore te
Que solo vivo enamore te
Me enamore de esta gitana
Que ya se ponga a bailando

I live only to make you fall in love with me
I live only to make you fall in love with me
I've felt in love with this gypsy woman
That already started to dance

thank you very much my friend, i really appreciate it. best wishes.

Don't mention it. I'm sorry I couldn't translate the 3rd sentence from the 1st paragraph, but I really don't understand the words ...

Its ok my friend

The lyrics are (as far as I know) not Spanish or Italian, not even a dialect of any region, but a slang made up by the Gipsy Kings themselves that is a sloppy mix of both languages and maybe a bit Catalan with everything else than correct grammar or spelling. I personally think they sing what came into their heads and making it rhyme without regarding correctness or specific language.
That's why it's just guesswork for anyone to translate or even comprehend their lyrics, and that's why it's completely impossible to have the lyrics translated by an automatic translator. I've babbled enough, this is how I interpret the lyrics with the best of my knowledge:


When I met Maria Dolores,
that's when I learned what 'heartache' meant
When I learned what real pain was
that's when I went to see the doctor.

Dance, dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance to me
this gipsy style rumba
that I'll keep on singing forever
But I will keep on singing forever
But I will keep on singing forever
this gipsy style rumba
that I'll keep on singing forever

I live solely in love with you
I live solely in love with you
I fell in love with this gipsy girl
I wish she started dancing right away.

it's indeed a gypsy slang song, as is usual for the Gypsy Kings. It is not their "selfinvented mixture". It is spoken by the local gypsies.
"mal d'amore" is not a "headache" but "Heartgrief"
Otherwise I have the feeling that both translations are fine

Muchas Gracias,
