Post Can you help me translate this spanish song from Bebe-Malo?
I'd like to know the english translation of the song Malo from Bebe, but translation websites aren't doing a good job. Below is a link to the lyrics. Thanks

You appear on a cold night
smelling like tobacco and ginebra (is an alcoholic beverage
The fear already crossed to me (like it invaded her body)
while I crossed my little fingers behind the door.
Your little face of handsome boy
has been eating the time by your veins (so he has gotten older)
and your machista insecurities
are reflected every day on my tears (he hits her)

One more time, no please I am tired
my heart cannot take this
One more time, no please my love
don't scream the children are asleep (2x)

I'm going to become like fire
I will burn your fist of steel
and from the bruises of my cheeks I will have courage
to make you pay for the wounds

Bad, Bad, your are bad
don't break who you love, no
Dumb, Dumb, you are dumb
don't think you are better than women (2x)

The day is gray when you are around
and the sun shines when you leave
and the grief in my heart
I have to swallow it with the stove (so she cannot express her feelings)
My pretty girl face
has been aging with silence
every time that you call me a whore
your brain becomes smaller

One more time, no please I am tired
my heart cannot take this
One more time, no please my love
don't scream the children are asleep (2x)

I'm going to become like fire
I will burn your fist of steel
and from the bruises of my cheeks I will have courage
to make you pay for the wounds

Bad, Bad, your are bad
don't break who you love, no
Dumb, Dumb, you are dumb
don't think you are better than women (2x)

I tried to do my best with the translation, I love this song, it talks about domestic violence and I hope that now you'll be able to understand the song better. =)

it's a rather sad song...about a woman being abused by her husband

You showed up on a cold night
smelling of tobacco and gin
Fear was running through my body
as I crossed my fingers behind the door
Your pretty boy's face
has been fading out with time through your veins
and your male chauvinist man insecurities
are reflected on my tears every day

Not again please, I am tired
and my heart can't take it anymore
Not again, my love, please
don't shout, the children are sleeping (2x)

I'm going to turn into fire
I'm going to burn your fists of steel
and the bruises in my face will give me the courage
to make you pay for my wounds
.
You are mean
You mustn't hurt the one you love
You are a fool
You shouldn't think you are better than a woman (2x)


The day is gray when you are around
and the sun comes out as soon as you leave
and I have to drown the sorrow of my heart
in the stove
My pretty girl's face
has been aging in silence
Every time you call me a whore
your brain shrinks

Not again please, I am tired
and my heart can't take it anymore
Not again, my love, please
don't shout, the children are sleeping (2x)

I'm going to turn into fire
I'm going to burn your fists of steel
and the bruises in my face will give me the courage
to make you pay for my wounds
.
You are mean
You mustn't hurt the one you love
You are a fool
You shouldn't think you are better than a woman (2x)
