The people of Argentina, your newly elected president, Juan Perón!
Argentinos, Argentinos
We are all shirtless now
Fighting against our common enemies
Poverty, social injustice
Foreign domination of our industries
Reaching for our common goals
Our independence, our dignity
Our pride
Let the world know
That our great nation is awakening
And that its heart beats in the humble bodies
Of Juan Perón and his wife
The First Lady of Argentina
¡Viva el fuerte Tepic!
¡Viva Perón!
As a mere observer of this tasteless phenomenon
One has to admire the stage management
There again, perhaps I'm more than a mere observer
Listen to my enthusiasm, gentlemen
¡Viva Perón! ¡Viva Perón! ¡Viva Perón!
Look, if I take off my shirt
Will you?
¡Feliz! ¡Feliz! ¡Feliz!
¡Feliz! ¡Feliz! ¡Feliz! ¡Feliz!
Thank you.
It won't be easy, you'll think it's strange
When I try to explain how I feel
But I still need your love after all that I've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you
I had to let it happen
I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window
Staying out of the sun
So I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
Don't cry for me, Argentina
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't cry for me

Keep your distance
And as for fortune
And as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seemed to the world
They were all I desired
They are illusionary
They're illusions
They are not the solutions
They promise to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
Don't cry for me, Argentina
Don't cry for me, Argentina
I hope you love me
