Chavela Vargas — Ella song lyrics and translation
The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Ella" by Chavela Vargas.
Lyrics
Me canse de rogarle, me canse de decirle
Que yo sin ella de pena muero
Ya no quiso escucharme, si sus labios se abrieron
Fue pa' decirme: «ya no te quiero»
Yo sentí que mi vida se perdía en un abismo
Profundo y negro como mi suerte
Quise hallar el olvido al estilo Jalisco
Pero aquellos mariachis y aquel tequila me hicieron llorar
Me canse de rogarle. Con el llanto en mis ojos
Alcé mi copa y brinde por ella
No podía despreciarme
Era el ultimo brindis de un bohemio con una reina
Los mariachis callaron
De mi mano sin fuerza cayo mi copa
Sin darme cuenta
Ella quiso quedarse cuando vio mi tristeza
Pero ya estaba escrito que aquella noche perdiera su amor
Lyrics translation
I got tired of begging you, I got tired of telling you
That I die without it
He would no longer listen to me, if his lips were opened
He went to tell me, " I don't love you anymore»
I felt my life was lost in an abyss
Deep and black as my luck
I wanted to find oblivion in the Jalisco style
But those mariachis and that tequila made me cry
I got tired of begging you. With the crying in my eyes
I picked up my drink and toast to it
He couldn't despise me.
It was the last toast of a bohemian with a queen
The mariachis shut up
From my hand without strength fell my cup
Without realizing it
She wanted to stay when she saw my sadness
But it was already written that that night he lost his love
