Текст и перевод песни Carlos y José - Consejos De Una Madre

Consejos De Una Madre

En las cantinas, se da lo peor del mundo,
Decía una pobre madre, a su hijo malviviente
Aunque rodeado te encuentres de placeres,
El vino y las mujeres, serán para perderte

No son sinceros, amigos de cantina
Ni amores que se venden, con el que va llegando,
Mientras que tienes dinero, tienes todo
Luego que no lo tienes, te van abandonando

El malviviente, borracho y parrandero,
Si no tiene dinero, no tiene una esperanza
En vez de verlo, la gente con aprecio,
Lo ven con un desprecio y le tienen desconfianza

Hijo querido no quiero que te pierdas,
Aun te queda tiempo, para dejar los vicios,
El malviviente, malcriado con su madre,
Decía si dejo todo, pero pal día del juicio

Pasaron meses, pasaron muchos años,
Y aquella viejecita, lloraba a su hijo amado,
A veces preso, por pleitos de cantina,
Y a veces en la calle, lo hallaban bien tirado

Fueron en vano, aquellos mil consejos,
Que aquella buena madre, le dio toda la vida
El malviviente, borracho y parrandero
Curándose una cruda, murió en una cantina

Mother's Advice

The worst of the world is found in saloons,
A poor mother said to her dissolute son
Though you find yourself surrounded by pleasures,
Wine and women will be your undoing

Friends from the bar are not sincere
Nor are loves that are sold to anyone who comes along
While you have money, you have everything
Then when you don't have it, they will abandon you

The dissolute, drunken and partying man,
If he has no money, has no hope
Instead of seeing him, people with esteem,
They see him with disdain and distrust him

Dear son, I don't want you to get lost,
There is still time for you to give up your vices,
The dissolute, spoiled with his mother,
Said if I give up everything, but for the day of judgment

Months passed, many years passed,
And that old lady cried for her beloved son,
Sometimes imprisoned, for disputes in the bar,
And sometimes on the street, he was found well-dumped

In vain were those thousand pieces of advice,
That that good mother gave him all her life
The dissolute, drunken and partying man
Curing a hangover, he died in a bar
