Translation

Que dices, prieta querida:

What are you saying, my dark-skinned beloved:

"Vámonos para otras tierras.

"Let's go to other lands.

Aquí traigo dos pasajes

Here I have two tickets

O me sigues o te quedas..."

Either you follow me or you stay..."

"Vámonos para otras partes

"Let's go to other places

A gozar de los amores,

To enjoy loves,

Viviremos muy felices

We will live very happily

Sin agravios ni rencores..."

Without grievances or resentments..."


"No te ofrezco las estrellas

"I don't offer you the stars

Ni tampoco un mundo nuevo

Nor a new world either

Soy muy pobre, tú lo sabes,

I am very poor, you know it,

Jugador y parrandero

A player and a reveler


...Pero sí, por dios, te pido

...But yes, by God, I ask you

A cambio de mi cariño:

In exchange for my affection:

Que me dedico a quererte

That I dedicate myself to loving you

Y a dejar todos mis vicios..."

And to give up all my vices..."


"Ya están silbando los trenes

"The trains are already whistling

Dile adiós a tus parientes

Say goodbye to your relatives

Viviremos muy felices

We will live very happily

Verás que no te arrepientes

You'll see that you won't regret it."


Ya cruzando la frontera

Already crossing the border

Todito queda arreglado

Everything will be settled

Primero me dejan muerto

They would rather leave me dead

Que llevarte de mi lado..."

Than take you away from my side..."
