Translation

Creías que había de hallar

You thought I would find

Amor como el que perdí

Love like the one I lost

Tan al pelo lo jallé

I found it so perfectly

Que ni me acuerdo de ti

That I don't even remember you

Una sota y un caballo

A queen and a knight

Burlarse querían de mí, ¡ay!

They wanted to mock me, oh!


Malhaya quien dijo miedo

Cursed be the one who said fear

Si para morir nací

If I was born to die


Amigos les contaré

I will tell you, friends

Una acción particular

A particular action

Si me quieren sé querer

If they love me, I know how to love

Si me olvidan sé olvidar

If they forget me, I know how to forget


Nomás un orgullo tengo

I only have one pride

Que a nadie le sé rogar, ¡ay!

That I don't know how to beg anyone, oh!

Que la chancla que yo tiro

The sandal that I throw

No la vuelvo a levantar

I won't pick it up again


Amigos les contaré

I will tell you, friends

Una acción particular

A particular action

Si me quieren sé querer

If they love me, I know how to love

Si me olvidan sé olvidar

If they forget me, I know how to forget


Nomás un orgullo tengo

I only have one pride

Que a nadie le sé rogar, ¡ay!

That I don't know how to beg anyone, oh!

Que la chancla que yo tiro

The sandal that I throw

No la vuelvo a levantar

I won't pick it up again
