Lyrics
La quise como nadie tal vez haya querido
y la adoraba tanto que hasta celos sent.
Por ella me hice bueno, honrado y buen marido
y en hombre de trabajo, mi vida convert.
Al cabo de algn tiempo de unir nuestro destino
naca un varoncito, orgullo de mi hogar;
y era mi dicha tanta al ver claro mi camino,
ser padre de familia, honrado y trabajar.
Pero una noche de Reyes,
cuando a mi hogar regresaba,
comprob que me engaaba
con el amigo ms fiel.
Y ofendido en mi amor propio
quise vengar el ultraje,
lleno de ira y coraje
sin compasin los mat!
Que cuadro compaeros, no quiero recordarlo!
Me llena de vergenza, de odio y de rencor.
De que vale ser bueno! Si aparte de vengarme
clavaron en mi pecho la flecha del dolor.
Por eso compaero, como hoy es da de Reyes,
los zapatitos el nene afuera los dejo.
Espera un regalito y no sabe que a la madre
por falsa y por canalla, su padre la mat!
Lyrics translation
I loved her like no one else.
and I loved her so much that I even felt jealous.
For her I became good, honest and good husband
and as a working man, my life converts.
After some time to unite our Destiny
born a little boy, pride of my home;
and it was my joy so much to see my way clear,
being a family man, honest and working.
But a night of Kings,
when I returned home,
comprob that I was cheating
with the most faithful friend.
And offended in my self-love
I wanted to avenge the outrage,
full of anger and courage
no mercy mat them!
What a picture compaeros, I do not want to remember!
It fills me with vergenza, hatred and resentment.
It's worth being good! If aside from avenging me
they nailed the arrow of pain to my chest.
That's why compaero, as it is today da de Reyes,
the baby's shoes outside.
She's expecting a little gift and she doesn't know that to her mother
for fake and for scoundrel, her father killed her!
