(Juan Luis Guerra)
Elena decidió
Vender su cuerpo en una noche fría
(ay, sí, sí, oh..)
Ninguna mente dio
Y así fue hecha mujer, ¿quién lo diría?
Ella hizo del amor
El tiempo que se pierde cada día
Más tarde se cansó
Elena decidió vender su vida, oh
Elena se fugó
Vía Caracas a Nueva York
En un furgón de un barco que salía, uh
Elena lo logró
Ahora vive en el Bronx
Con un judío de una factoría, ¡oh!
Elena, Elena
Si te va bien escribe, Elena...
Ella se la buscó
En medio de la calle, en oficina
Elena recorrió
Todo Manhattan con su pie de arcilla
Su mente ella olvidó
Sus ojos dejaba en cualquier vitrina
Allá en la 102
Elena consiguió lo que quería
Nunca se imaginó
Que aquí en los Nuevas Yorks
Por entregar un sobre pagarían, uh
Tampoco imaginó
Por qué tanto temor
Ella nunca oyó hablar de cocaína, ¡oh!
Elena, Elena
Si te va bien escribe, Elena (uh, uh, Elena...)
¡Uh, Elena!
Y Elena así empezó
Un juego del que nunca se saldría
Ninguna mente dio
Pues su televisor se compraría, uh
Un paño se amarró
Dejó el pudor tirado en una silla
Mas nunca imaginó
Que a casa ya jamás regresaría
Y un día de calor
En la ciudad de Nueva York
Fue asesinada Elena en un tranvía, oh
El cielo se nubló
Y nadie recogió
El sobre que en su pecho ella traía, ¡oh!
Elena, Elena
Si te va bien escribe, Elena (uh, uh, Elena...)
¡Elena!
Oh, oh...

Juan Luis Guerra Seijas, nato a Santo Domingo il 7 giugno 1956, è un cantante, musicista e compositore dominicano considerato uno dei principali esponenti della musica latinoamericana. Guerra ha saputo fondere elementi tradizionali della musica dominicana, come il merengue e la bachata, con influenze jazzistiche e pop, creando un sound originale che ha definito "mamborengue". I suoi testi, spesso ispirati alla fede cristiana e all'amore per la sua terra natale, sono caratterizzati da una vena di umorismo e ironia. La sua carriera musicale è iniziata negli anni '70 con il gruppo 440, ma è a partire dagli anni '80 che ha raggiunto fama internazionale grazie a album come "Privé" (1985) e "Ojalá" (1992). Nel corso della sua lunga carriera, Guerra ha vinto 18 Grammy Award nel genere musica latina, consolidando il suo status di artista leggendario. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo "Añoro tu presencia", "Visa para un sueño", "La bili" e "Bachata en Fukuoka".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
