Paroles et traduction Rocio Jurado - La Querida

La Querida

Sé que no lo quieres como yo,
Aunque no sea mío.
Sé que no le das lo que le he dado yo,
Aunque sé que al fín, se irá contigo.
Pero cuando sueña, yo lo sé,
Pronincia mi nombre,
Y a tí, te cuesta llorar
Noche tras noche.
A que dice "amor" muy diferente
A cuando no me conocía.
A que en la mañana tiene prisa
Por salir corriendo a verme...
Por algo llegué después,
Por algo llegué más tarde...
En algo tengo que ser...
La que gane.
Sé que vuelve tarde, yo lo sé,
Oliendo a besos y a vino...
Y no le preguntas cómo y dónde fué,
Porque sabes bien, que fué conmigo.
Te habrás dado cuenta que por mí,
Se cuida y presume,
Y vive alegre y felíz,
Como en las nubes...
A que ahora sacia tus caprichos,
A que te da lo que le pidas...
Todo a cambio de que no le impidas
Cada día conmigo...
Por algo llegué después,
Por algo llegué más tarde...
En algo tengo que ser
La que gane...
La que gane...

The Beloved

I know you don't love him like I do,
Even though he is not mine.
I know you don't give him what I gave him,
Even though I know that he will eventually go with you.
But when he dreams, I know,
He calls my name,
And you, you can't help but cry,
Night after night.
How he says "love" so differently,
From when he didn't know me.
How he is in a hurry in the morning,
To rush out to see me...
For something, I came later,
For something, I came too late...
In something, I have to be...
The one who wins.
I know he comes back late, I know,
Smelling of kisses and wine...
And you don't ask him how and where he went,
Because you know very well that he was with me.
You must have realized that for me,
He takes care of himself and presumes,
And he lives happy and in joy,
As if in the clouds...
How now he satisfies your whims,
How he gives you what you ask for...
All in exchange for you not preventing him from
Being with me each day...
For something, I came later,
For something, I came too late...
In something, I have to be
The one who wins...
The one who wins...
