Paroles et traduction Juan Rivera - Mi Último Deseo

Mi Último Deseo

Aunque no hay fiesta en mi rancho
La banda está tocando,

Mucha familia y amigos al rancho y al rio llegando
Mi madre toda de negro
Sin consuelo está llorando.

Mi padre que nunca toma,
Como un loco está tomando,

Mi madre con gran dolor,
Un rosario está rezando,
Aún no entiendo lo que pasa,
Solo debo estar soñando.

Que lindo suena la banda,
La que toca mi canción,
Mis hermanos con tristeza,
Llevan cargando un cajón
Seguidos por mucha gente,
Caminan rumbo al panteón

Se ve que era muy alegre
Al que llevan a enterrar,
También cuando yo me muera
Así me van a llevar
Es mi ultimo deseo
No se les vaya a olvidar.

Ya están sonando los dobles
Ya siento ganas de llorar,
Sin conocer al difunto
Que llevan a sepultar
De esta horrible pesadilla
Ya quisiera despertar

Por fin abren el cajón
Y no creo lo que estoy viendo
Es mi cuerpo ya sin vida,
Del que se están despidiendo.

Como pedí a mi familia,
Mi deseo están cumpliendo.

My Last Wish

Although there is no party at my ranch
The band is playing,

Many family and friends are arriving at the ranch and the river
My mother is all in black
She is crying inconsolably.

My father who never drinks,
Is drinking like a madman,

My mother with great pain,
Is praying a rosary,
I still don't understand what's going on,
I must be dreaming.

How beautiful the band sounds,
The one that plays my song,
My brothers with sadness,
Are carrying a coffin
Followed by many people,
They are walking towards the cemetery

It seems that the one
They are taking to be buried was very happy,
Also when I die
That's how they will take me
It is my last wish
Don't forget it.

The bells are already ringing
I already feel like crying,
Without knowing the deceased
Who is being taken to be buried
From this horrible nightmare
I wish I could wake up

They finally open the coffin
And I don't believe what I'm seeing
It's my lifeless body,
The one they are saying goodbye to.

As I asked my family,
They are fulfilling my wish.
