Lyrics

Ay amigo que crees que paso
Se me fue la que me tanto adoraba
Un papel me dejo en el buro
Y una foto tirada el la cama
Donde estaba colgada de un hombre
Y sin duda me con el me enganaba
Levante tembloroso el papel
Y lei cuatro o cinco renglones
Pero el llanto cubrio mis pupilas
Y llore como lloran los hombres
Yo no se que le debo a la vida
Que me paga con puras traiciones
Ella dice que dejo la foto
Para mis ojos lo vieran de cerca
Que es un hombre rico
Que le da dinero
Y que sin embargo yo le di pobreza
Que pablaras tan crueles lei
Que manera de echarme olvido
Que se acabe esta vida infeliz
Y que vengan las copas de vino
Ella vaga en la vida sin mi Y yo vago en el fondo del vicio
Yo no se que le debo a la vida
Que me paga con puras traiciones
Ella dice que dejo la foto
Para mis ojos lo viran de cerca
Que es un hombre rico
Que le da dinero
Y que sin embargo yo le di pobreza

Lyrics translation

Oh, man, what do you think happened?
I was the one who loved me so much
A role I left in the buro
And a picture taken on the bed
Where she was hanging from a man
And I was certainly mistaken with him
Shake up the paper
And I read four or five lines
But the crying covered my pupils
And weep as men weep
I don't know what I owe to life
Who pays me with pure betrayal
She says I leave the photo
For my eyes to see it up close
That he's a rich man
That gives him money
And yet I gave him Poverty
That you pablaras so cruel lei
What a way to forget me
May this unhappy life end
And let the wine glasses come
She wanders in life without me and I wander in the background of Vice
I don't know what I owe to life
Who pays me with pure betrayal
She says I leave the photo
For my eyes turn it up close
That he's a rich man
That gives him money
And yet I gave him Poverty
