Lyrics

De que sirve que te hayan casado
Con el hombre más rico del pueblo
Es muy triste ver que has fracasado
Y lo siento porque aun te quiero
Aun sabiendo que tú eres ajena
Yo deseo para ti lo más bueno
Nunca vas a olvidarte de mí
Yo aunque quiera olvidarte no puedo
Los recuerdos que tienes de mí
Van a hacer que aborrezcas tu dueño
No me digas, que tú eres feliz
Con sus años y con su dinero
Por ser pobre de mí se burlaron
Y de paso de tus sentimientos
Te buscaron a un rico hacendado
Del que solo tendrás sus lamentos
Si el dinero realiza milagros
Ojala que le quite lo viejo
Cuando veas que de nada te sirve
Tantos lujos y comodidades
Si la dicha mas linda del mundo
Con dinero no puede comprarse
Hasta entonces veras sin orgullo
El favor que te hicieron tus padres
Por ser pobre de mí se burlaron
Y de paso de tus sentimientos
Te buscaron a un rico hacendado
Del que solo tendrás sus lamentos
Si el dinero realiza milagros
Ojala que le quite lo viejo

Lyrics translation

What's the point of getting married?
With the richest man in town
It's so sad to see you failed
And I'm sorry because I still love you
Even knowing that you are a stranger
I wish you the best
You'll never forget me
Even if I want to forget you I can't
The memories you have of me
They're gonna make you hate your owner.
Don't tell me, you're happy
With his years and with his money
For being poor of me they made fun of
And in passing your feelings
You were looking for a rich farmer.
Of whom you will only mourn
If money performs miracles
I hope it takes away the old
When you see that it's of no use to you
So many luxuries and amenities
If the prettiest Bliss in the world
With money can not be bought
Until then you'll see without pride
The favor your parents did you
For being poor of me they made fun of
And in passing your feelings
You were looking for a rich farmer.
Of whom you will only mourn
If money performs miracles
I hope it takes away the old
