Ay de Tí, Ay de Mí

Woe to You, Woe to Me

Ay de Tí, Ay de Mí

And I who was backY yo que estaba de vuelta
From all the goingsDe todas las idas
With a wounded soulCon el alma herida
I love you, you seeTe quiero, ya ves

I'll be whatever you preferSeré lo que tú prefieras
Your light or your shadowTu luz o tu sombra
Or maybe a rugO acaso una alfombra
Kissing your feetBesando tus pies

Woe to you, woe to meAy de ti, ay de mí
Neither you nor I are guilty:Ni tú ni yo somos culpables:
Unhappy fools who fell into this loveInfelices locos que caímos en este amor
That is a mistakeQue es un error
UnforgivableImperdonable
Woe to you, woe to meAy de ti, ay de mí

And you who always saidY tú que siempre decías
To be intelligentSer inteligente
Not like those peopleNo como esa gente
Who die of loveQue muere de amor

So you will know that the roseAsí sabrás que la rosa
Is rose because it's beautifulEs rosa por bella
And not because in itY no porque en ella
Breathes a flowerRespire una flor

Woe to you, woe to meAy de ti, ay de mí
Life is the favoriteLa vida es la consentida
Fierce dictatorshipFeroz dictadura
Of a creatureDe una criatura
Who plays to commandQue juega a mandar
Neither you nor I are nobodyNi tú ni yo somos nadie
Nor do we make historyNi hacemos historia
For we are the scumPues somos la escoria
That can still burnQue aun puede quemar
