Ni Dada La Quiero
Valentín Elizalde
Lyrics
Translation
Me puse a colgarle un letrero
I put up a sign
a la casa humilde pero honrada que te di
on the humble but honorable house I gave you
en el solo dice se vende
it only says "for sale"
porque ya no quiero mas saber de ti
because I don't want to know anything more about you
Apenas lo habia colgado
Hardly had I hung it up
llego un comprador a mi lado
a buyer arrived by my side
venia dispuesto a tratar
he came willing to negotiate
y le dije la vendo barata
and I told him I'm selling it cheap
porque en ella me engaño la ingrata
because the ungrateful one deceived me in it
que no supo nunca mi amor apreciar
she never knew how to appreciate my love
Vi que su mirada reflejaba miedo
I saw fear reflected in his gaze
no me dijo nada
he didn't say anything to me
se guardo el dinero
he kept the money
dio la media vuelta y oi que decia
he turned around and I heard him say
igual que la mia
just like mine
igual que la mia
just like mine
ni dada la quiero
I don't want it for anything
Apenas lo habia colgado
Hardly had I hung it up
llego un comprador a mi lado
a buyer arrived by my side
venia dispuesto a tratar
he came willing to negotiate
y le dije la vendo barata
and I told him I'm selling it cheap
porque en ella me engaño la ingrata
because the ungrateful one deceived me in it
que no supo nunca mi amor apreciar
she never knew how to appreciate my love
Vi que su mirada reflejaba miedo
I saw fear reflected in his gaze
no me dijo nada
he didn't say anything to me
se guardo el dinero
he kept the money
dio la media vuelta y oi que decia
he turned around and I heard him say
igual que la mia
just like mine
igual que la mia
just like mine
ni dada la quiero
I don't want it for anything
