Amargo Dolor
La Migra
Lyrics
Translation
Amigos míos, nomás vengo a decirles
My friends, I just come to tell you
La causa y el motivo de mi amargo dolor
The cause and the reason for my bitter pain
Que la mujer ingrata a quien yo amaba tanto
That ungrateful woman whom I loved so much
La odio con espanto y maldigo su amor
I hate her with horror and curse her love
Pero ay, cuando la miro me acuerdo de sus besos
But oh, when I see her, I remember her kisses
Y la horrible tristeza no puedo remediar
And the horrible sadness I cannot remedy
Quisiera envenenarla o quitarle la existencia
I wish to poison her or take away her existence
Porque estaba en la creencia que le iba yo a rogar
Because I was under the belief that I would beg her
La pobre de mi madre se cansa de decirme
Poor my mother gets tired of telling me
Que ya no tome vino que le haga ese favor
To no longer drink wine, do her that favor
La causa de este vicio fue esa mujer ingrata
The cause of this vice was that ungrateful woman
Porque no tuve plata para comprar su amor
Because I didn't have money to buy her love
Cuando ando borrachillo, enciendo un cigarrillo
When I'm a bit drunk, I light a cigarette
Y la luz del cerillo aumenta mi dolor
And the match's light increases my pain
Quisiera envenenarla o quitarle la existencia
I wish to poison her or take away her existence
Porque estaba en la creencia que le iba yo a rogar
Because I was under the belief that I would beg her
La pobre de mi madre se cansa de decirme
Poor my mother gets tired of telling me
Que ya no tome vino que le haga ese favor
To no longer drink wine, do her that favor
La causa de este vicio fue esa mujer ingrata
The cause of this vice was that ungrateful woman
Porque no tuve plata para comprar su amor
Because I didn't have money to buy her love
