Paroles et traduction Ramón Ayala y Sus Bravos del Norte - El Espejo

El Espejo

Rodeada de amigas te enontrabas
La tarde que frente a ti pasaba
Con tristesa oi que te desian
Que baja esta callendo tu mirada.

Yo se que mi cariño has despreciado
Mil hombres te ofrecen sus riquesas
Yo solo un corazon casi postrero
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza.

Las nubes por el cielo van llorando
Las aves van cantando mi tristeza
Solo tu de mi ya ni te acuerdas
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza
Solo tu de mi ya no te acuerdas
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza...

Ya casi ni recuerdo quien me dijo
Cuidado no vayas a humillarte
Tal vez fueron palabras de mi madre
Palabras de un cariño que no podria engañarme.

Collares de perlas te habran dado
Dinero y amor segun parece
Yo espero que el espejo te defraude
Al fin que la pobreza no embejese.

Las nubes por el cielo van llorando
Las aves van cantando mi tristeza
Solo tu de mi ya ni te acuerdas
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza
Solo tu de mi ya no te acuerdas
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza...

The Mirror

You were surrounded by your friends.
That afternoon, you walked past me.
I sadly heard them tell you,
That your eyes were losing their sparkle.

I know that you have rejected my love.
A thousand men offer you their wealth,
I only offer a heart that is almost gone,
Because I am sinking in poverty.

The clouds pass by weeping through the sky
The birds sing of my sadness
Only you no longer remember me
Because I am sinking in poverty
Only you no longer remember me
Because I am sinking in poverty...

I hardly remember who told me
Be careful not to humiliate yourself.
Perhaps they were my mother's words,
Words of love that could not deceive me.

You will have been given pearl necklaces.
Money and love, it seems.
I hope the mirror lets you down.
After all, poverty does not age you.

The clouds pass by weeping through the sky
The birds sing of my sadness
Only you no longer remember me
Because I am sinking in poverty
Only you no longer remember me
Because I am sinking in poverty...
