Translation

Vivo en una prisión triste y negra

I live in a sad and dark prison

Por que ay me tocaba esta suerte

Because fate dealt me this luck

Yo seria más feliz si me dieran

I would be happier if they gave me

Por castigo la pena de muerte

As punishment the death penalty


Esta celda en que me hayo cautivo

This cell in which I am held captive

Poco a poco me va consumiendo

Little by little is consuming me

Si vivieran mis padres queridos

If my beloved parents were alive

No estaría en esta cárcel sufriendo

I wouldn't be suffering in this prison


El maldito veneno del vino

The damned poison of wine

Y el amor en que quise confiar

And the love in which I trusted

Son las cosas que tienen la culpa

Are the things to blame

Que ahora viva como un criminal

That now I live like a criminal


Paso noches enteras llorando

I spend entire nights crying

Y en silencio rezándole al cielo

And silently praying to the sky

Soy el preso que ya en muchos años

I'm the prisoner who for many years now

Nadie viene a brindarle un consuelo

No one comes to offer consolation


El maldito veneno del vino

The damned poison of wine

Y el amor en que quise confiar

And the love in which I trusted

Son las cosas que tienen la culpa

Are the things to blame

Que ahora viva como un criminal

That now I live like a criminal
