Lyrics and translation Miguel Aceves Mejía & El Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan - El Crucifijo de Piedra
El Crucifijo de Piedra
Stone Crucifix
Cuando
la
estaba
queriendo,
When
I
was
loving
you,
Cuando
la
estaba
sintiendo,
When
I
was
feeling
you,
Todita
mía
la
vi
partir.
I
saw
myself
all
mine
leaving.
Me
juró
que
regresaba,
She
swore
to
me
that
she
would
return,
Pero
todo
era
mentira
But
it
was
all
a
lie
Porque
ya
su
alma
no
era
de
mí.
Because
her
soul
was
no
longer
mine.
En
la
noche
silenciosa,
In
the
silent
night,
Nos
miramos
frente
a
frente
We
looked
at
each
other
Sin
hablar.
Without
speaking.
Ella
me
dijo
de
pronto
She
suddenly
told
me
Que
olvidara
su
cariño,
To
forget
her
love,
Que
no
me
quería
engañar.
That
she
didn't
want
to
deceive
me.
Fue
bajo
del
crucifijo
It
was
under
the
crucifix
De
la
torre
de
una
iglesia,
Of
the
church
tower,
Cuando
la
luna
nos
alumbró.
When
the
moon
illuminated
us.
Yo
la
estreché
entre
mis
brazos
I
hugged
her
in
my
arms
Con
ganas
de
detenerla,
Wanting
to
hold
her
back,
Pero
el
orgullo
me
lo
impidió.
But
my
pride
prevented
me.
Ya
solo
frente
a
la
iglesia
Now
alone
outside
the
church
Y
llorando
ante
el
Cristo,
And
weeping
before
Christ,
Fui
a
implorar.
I
went
to
implore.
Al
contemplar
mi
tristeza,
In
contemplating
my
sadness,
El
crucifijo
de
piedra
The
stone
crucifix
También
se
puso
a
llorar.
Also
began
to
weep.
