Paroles et traduction Julio Sosa - Cuando Era Mía Mi Vieja

Cuando Era Mía Mi Vieja

Vecina, no me haga caso
Ni mire con desconfianza
Si hace rato que la paso
Parado frente a su casa
Al verla a usted me parece
Que está mi mamá en la reja
Porque esta casa era mía
Cuando era mía mi vieja

El barrio está transformado
Y hoy veo, al llegar de lejos
Que sólo en él no ha cambiado
La casita de los viejos

Si hasta la verja de hierro
Desde allí parece hablarme
Y usted me mira y su perro
Me ladra como pa′echarme
Y usted me mira y su perro, señora
Me ladra como pa'echarme

Ah vecina, si usted supiera, claro
Ahora soy un extraño
Sin embargo, entonces
Era del barrio, yo sabes
Pero entonces hace años
Cuando, cuando mi mamá
Mi mamá era la dueña de casa
Toda esta casa era mía, toda
Porque era mía mi vieja

El barrio está transformado
Y hoy veo, al llegar de lejos
Que sólo en él no ha cambiado
La casita de los viejos

Si hasta la verja de hierro
Desde allí parece hablarme
Y usted me mira y su perro
Me ladra como pa′echarme
Y usted me mira y su perro, señora
Me ladra como pa'echarme

Oh mi madre querida
Ja no es más mía mi vieja

When My Old Lady Was Mine

Neighbor, don't pay me no mind
And don't look at me with suspicion
If I've been standing for a while
In front of your house
When I see you, you seem like
My mother at the gate
Because this house was mine
When my old lady was mine

The neighborhood has changed
And today, when I came from afar
I see that the only thing that hasn't changed
Is the old folks' house

Even the iron gate
Seems to speak to me from there
And you look at me and your dog
Barks at me like he's gonna chase me away
And you look at me and your dog, ma'am
Barks at me like he's gonna chase me away

Oh neighbor, if you only knew
Now I'm a stranger
However, back then
I was from the neighborhood, you know
But back then, years ago
When, when my mother
My mother was the owner of the house
This whole house was mine, all of it
Because my old lady was mine

The neighborhood has changed
And today, when I came from afar
I see that the only thing that hasn't changed
Is the old folks' house

Even the iron gate
Seems to speak to me from there
And you look at me and your dog
Barks at me like he's gonna chase me away
And you look at me and your dog, ma'am
Barks at me like he's gonna chase me away

Oh my dear mother
My old lady is no longer mine
