There it is, there it is, there it is, there it is Explanation: That's how I imagine it going in English, and you could sing it to the melody. It's actually literally what the lyrics say at the end of each verse: "Ah! y ahí está, y ahí está. Ahí está, ahí está viendo pasar el tiempo la Puerta de Alcalá." So it would imply repeating this. But anything like "Look at it" sounds false, I think. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 36 mins (2017-12-04 11:24:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I was assuming you want to keep the same song reference. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 37 mins (2017-12-04 11:26:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think anyone who knows the song would get it. |

Look at her, look at her Explanation: If you want it to rhyme, like the Spanish version, you could say: 'Look at her, look at her, the Puerta de Alcalá!' |
