Tan alta que está la luna

Tan alta que está la luna, ay si,

So high the moon stands, oh yes,

y el lucero la acompaña, ay no,

and the evening star accompanies it, oh no,

que triste se queda un hombre, ay si,

how sad a man becomes, oh yes,

cuando la mujer lo engana, ay no,

when the woman betrays him, oh no,

Serás libre, palomita

You'll be free, little dove

como soy yo, como soy yo.

just like I am, just like I am.

Vamos, vida, yo ya me voy

Come on, life, I'm already leaving

con mi cajita de cuero

with my little leather box

te digo adiós, te digo adiós.

I say goodbye to you, I say goodbye to you.

Yo soy como el cuervo negro, ay si,

I am like the black raven, oh yes,

que no pierde su volido, ay no,

that doesn't lose its flight, oh no,

como queris que yo pierda, ay si,

how could you expect me to lose, oh yes,

un corazón tán querido, ay no.

such a beloved heart, oh no.

Serás libre...

You'll be free...

Solo me estoy en mi rancho, ay si,

I'm alone at my ranch, oh yes,

solito con mi dolor, ay no,

all alone with my pain, oh no,

de noche me ve la luna, ay si,

at night the moon sees me, oh yes,

de dia me ve el sol, ay no,

in the day, the sun sees me, oh no,

Serás libre...

You'll be free...
