Lyrics
Un día estaba tomando
Adentro de una cantina
Cuando llego aquella dama
De blanco y muy delgadita
Le dije venga conmigo
A tomarse una copita
Le pregunte que tomaba
Cerveza o vino del fuerte
Me contesto lo que sea
Al fin que yo soy la muerte
Y no quieras vacilarme
Nomas vengo a recogerte
Le dije: ya que eso quieres
Nada me importa la vida
Por culpa de la mujeres
Quiero ahogarme en la bebida
Acompáñame esta noche
Luego te llevas mi vida
Al ver lo triste que estaba
Me dijo yo me arrepiento
Voy a pedir por tu vida
Para que sigas viviendo
Los que sufren por amores
Deben de seguir viviendo
Le dije: no seas ingrata
Yo siempre fui buen amigo
Si es que no quieres matarme
Yo quiero ser tu marido
O por lo menos servirte
Como tu mas fiel amigo
Me dijo de despedida
Para mi el amor no existe
La muerte no tiene amigos
Ni tiene quien la bendiga
Aquí te quedas solito
Que te castigue la vida
Lyrics translation
One day I was taking
Inside a canteen
When that lady arrives
White and very thin
I said come with me
To have a drink
I asked him what he was taking.
Beer or wine from the Fort
I'll answer anything.
At last I am death
And you don't want to hesitate
I just came to pick you up.
I said, since that's what you want
I don't care about life.
Because of women
I want to drown in the drink
Come with me tonight
Then you take my life
Seeing how sad he was
He told Me I regret it
I'll ask for your life
To keep you alive
Those who suffer for love
They must continue to live
I said, Don't be ungrateful.
I was always a good friend
If you don't want to kill me
I want to be your husband
Or at least serve you
As your most faithful friend
He said goodbye to Me.
For me love does not exist
Death has no friends
She has no one to bless her.
Here you stay alone
May I punish your life
