Translation

Entre suspiro y suspiro

Between sigh and sigh

No encuentro el olvido

I cannot find forgetfulness

Me está matando el querer

Love is killing me

Porque una ingrata perjura

Because an ungrateful perjurer

Que mi alma tortura

Who tortures my soul

Me hiere con su desdén

Wounds me with her disdain


Entre sollozo y sollozo

Between sob and sob

No tengo reposo

I have no rest

Y lloro y canto a la vez

And I cry and sing at the same time

Porque cantando mitigo

Because singing I alleviate

El duro castigo

The harsh punishment

Que dios me quiso imponer

That God wanted to impose on me


¿Por qué diosito tan bueno

Why, dear God, so good

Que siendo justo y sereno

Being just and serene

Me manda un castigo así?

Sends me such a punishment?

¿Por que me escogió esta suerte

Why did He choose this fate for me?

Y me ha sentenciado a muerte

And sentenced me to death

Nomás por quererla así?

Just for loving her like this?


Entre suspiro y suspiro

Between sigh and sigh

No encuentro el olvido

I cannot find forgetfulness

Me está matando el querer

Love is killing me

Porque una ingrata perjura

Because an ungrateful perjurer

Que mi alma tortura

Who tortures my soul

Me hiere con su desdén

Wounds me with her disdain


Entre sollozo y sollozo

Between sob and sob

No tengo reposo

I have no rest

Y lloro y canto a la vez

And I cry and sing at the same time

Porque cantando mitigo

Because singing I alleviate

El duro castigo

The harsh punishment

Que dios me quiso imponer

That God wanted to impose on me


¿Por qué diosito tan bueno

Why, dear God, so good

Que siendo justo y sereno

Being just and serene

Me manda un castigo así?

Sends me such a punishment?

¿Por que me escogió esta suerte

Why did He choose this fate for me?

Y me ha sentenciado a muerte

And sentenced me to death

Nomás por quererla así?

Just for loving her like this?
