Cantinero de Piura

My Piura has a sun and a barTiene mi Piura un Sol y una cantina
Pour some rum and flowers and carob syrupHechale caña y flor y algarrobina
The bartender's a good PiuranEl cantinero es un buen piurano
A love story turned him badUna historia de amor, lo volvió malo

When he heads to the portCuando va para el puerto
He always peeks outSiempre se asoma
Waiting for the messageEsperando el mensaje
From a doveDe una paloma
The winds are shiftingEl matricia los vientos
You go, sailorVas marinero
The sails caught himLo apesaron las velas
On that sailing shipDe aquel barco velero

Today I want to get drunkHoy me quiero emborrachar
I need to be lovedNecesito ser amado
To forget a pastPara olvidar un pasado
That can't be forgottenQue no se puede olvidar
If I could singSi yo pudiera cantar
But the pain chokes mePero la pena me ahoga
And I remember it all the timeY la recuerdo a toda hora
And I can't forget itY no la puedo olvidar
