Lyrics

Ya me canso de llorar
Y no amanece
Ya no sé si maldecirte o Por tí rezar
Tengo miedo
De buscarte
Y de encontrarte
Donde
Me aseguran
Tus amigos
Que te vas
Hay momentos
En que quisiera
Mejor rajarme
Arrancarme ya los clavos
De mi pena
Pero mis ojos
Se mueren
Sin mirar tus ojos
Y mi cariño
Con la aurora
Te vuelve a esperar
Ya agarraste
Por tu cuenta
¡La parranda!
Paloma Negra
Paloma Negra
¿Dónde andarás?
Ya no juegues
Con mi honra
Parrandera
Si tus caricias
Deben ser mías
¡De nadie más!
Y aunque te ame
Con locura
Ya no vuelvas
Paloma Negra
En la reja de un penar
Quiero ser libre
Vivir mi vida
Con quien yo quiera
Dios, dame fuerzas
Que estoy muriendo
Por irlo a buscar
Ya agarraste
Por tu cuenta
¡La parranda!

Lyrics translation

I'm tired of crying.
And it never dawns
I don't know whether to curse you or to pray anymore
I'm afraid
To find you
And to find you
Where
They assure Me
Your friends
That you're leaving
There are moments
Where I'd like to
Better split.
Rip my nails off already
Of my grief
But my eyes
They die
Without looking at your eyes
And my love
With the dawn
He's waiting for you again.
You got it.
On your own
La parranda!
Black Dove
Black Dove
Where Are you going?
Don't play anymore
With my honor
Parrandera
If your caresses
They must be Maas
Nobody else's!
And even though I love you
With madness
Don't come back.
Black Dove
In the gate of a penar
I want to be free
Live my life
With whomever I want
God, give me strength
That I'm dying
For going after him
You got it.
On your own
La parranda!
