Ay de Mi, Ay de Ti
Ella Baila Sola
Lyrics
Translation
Y yo que estaba de vuelta
And I who was back
de todas las idas
from all the comings and goings
con el alma herida,
with a wounded soul,
te quiero, ya ves.
I love you, you see.
Seré lo que tú prefieras,
I'll be whatever you prefer,
tu luz o tu sombra
your light or your shadow
o acaso una alfombra
or perhaps a carpet
besando tus pies.
kissing your feet.
Ay de ti, ay de mí,
Oh, you, oh, me,
ni tú ni yo somos culpables,
neither you nor I are guilty,
infelices, locos
unhappy, crazy ones
que caímos en este amor
who fell into this love
que es un error imperdonable
that is an unforgivable mistake.
ay de tí, ay de mí.
Oh, you, oh, me.
Y tú que siempre decías
And you, who always said
ser inteligente
to be intelligent
no como esa gente
not like those people
que muere de amor.
who die of love.
Así sabrás que la rosa
So you will know that the rose
es rosa por bella
is a rose because it's beautiful
y no porque ella
and not because it
respire una flor.
breathes a flower.
Ay de ti, ay de mí,
Oh, you, oh, me,
ni tú ni yo somos culpables,
neither you nor I are guilty,
infelices, locos
unhappy, crazy ones
que caímos en este amor
who fell into this love
que es un error imperdonable
that is an unforgivable mistake.
ay de tí, ay de mí.
Oh, you, oh, me.
La vida es la consentida,
Life is the spoiled one,
feroz dictadura
ferocious dictatorship
de una criatura
of a creature
que juega a mandar.
that plays at commanding.
Ni tú ni yo somos nadie,
Neither you nor I are anybody,
ni hacemos historia
nor do we make history
pues somos la escoria
because we are the scum
que aún puede quemar.
that can still burn.
Ay de ti, ay de mí,
Oh, you, oh, me,
ni tú ni yo somos culpables,
neither you nor I are guilty,
infelices, locos
unhappy, crazy ones
que caímos en este amor
who fell into this love
que es un error imperdonable
