El Cerillazo

Mi vida te huviera dado

My life I would have given you

De haberlo querido asi

If you had wanted it that way

Mi vida huviera pasado

My life would have passed

Contento y enamorado

Happy and in love

Viviendo juntito a ti

Living close to you

Los dos fueramos dichosos

We both would have been happy

Viviendo nuestro querer

Living our love

Pasando siempre amorosos

Always passing lovingly

Eternidades de gozos

Eternities of joys

Entre caricias mi bien

Among caresses, my love

Pero yo no se

But I don't know

No puedo entender

I can't understand

Si estuviste entre mis brazos

If you were in my arms

Y hoy me niegas tu querer

And today you deny me your love

Pero yo no se

But I don't know

Lo que te paso

What happened to you

Fue tu amor un cerillazo

Your love was a spark

Que de pronto se apago

That suddenly went out

Amor con amor se paga

Love is repaid with love

Y al mio le han pagado mal

And mine has been poorly repaid

Regresate amor a mi alma

Come back, love, to my soul

No pierdas por dios la calma

Don't lose your calm, for God's sake

Y vuelvas a comenzar

And start again

Amor si tu la quisiste

Love, if you loved her

La debes de perdonar

You should forgive her

Mejor es que vivas triste

It's better that you live sad

Recuerda que la perdiste

Remember that you lost her

No la vallas a buscar

Don't go looking for her

Pero yo no se

But I don't know

No puedo entender

I can't understand

Si estuviste entre mis brazos

If you were in my arms

Y hoy me niegas tu querer

And today you deny me your love

Pero yo no se

But I don't know

Lo que te paso

What happened to you

Fue tu amor un cerillazo

Your love was a spark

Que de pronto se apago

That suddenly went out
