Текст и перевод песни Paquita la del Barrio - Todo Por Ti

Todo Por Ti

Por ti abandone a mi madre
Y solita a deje
Sin preocuparme siquiera
Si tenía que comer
Hasta que llegó una noche
En que muerta la soñé
Y hecho un loco fui a buscarla pero ya
No la encontré
Supe que mi pobre madre sin saber
Ya lo que hacer pedía de puerta en puerta
Que le dieran de comer
En el rincón de una iglesia muerta de frío
Talvez sin exhalar una queja
Paso toda su vejez
Con una de las vecinas
Me dejó escrito un papel
Que eh borrado por el llanto apenas pude
Leer hijo de mi alma decía
Se bueno con la mujer
Que te arrancó de mi vera que yo ya
La perdone
Y si Dios te diera un hijo
Hablale mucho de mi, dile que no te abandone
Como tu me hiciste a mi
Si tiene los ojos negro
Y si se parece a ti
Dale un beso que tu madre
Le dejó antes de morir.

All For You

For you I abandoned my mother
And left her all alone
Without even worrying
If she had anything to eat
Until one night came
When I dreamed she was dead
And I went looking for her like a madman but
I no longer found her
I learned that my poor mother without knowing
What to do, asked from door to door
For someone to give her something to eat
In the corner of a church, dying of cold
Perhaps without uttering a complaint
She spent her entire old age
With one of the neighbors
She left me a note written
Which I erased because of crying, as soon as I could
She said: "My dear son"
Be good to the woman
Who tore you from my side, whom I have
Already forgiven
And if God should give you a son
Speak to him of me often, tell him not to abandon you
As you did to me
If he has dark eyes
And if he resembles you
Give him a kiss that his mother
Gave him before she died.
