Así Me Traicionaron

That's How They Betrayed Me

Así Me Traicionaron

One afternoon I found myself in a barUna tarde me encontré en una cantina
With an outcast who took it out of spiteCon un paria que tomaba por despecho
Sadness was evident in his eyesEn sus ojos la tristeza se veía
And his face did not hide the sufferingY su rostro no ocultaba el sufrimiento

It was good, his look didn't lieEra bueno su mirada no mentía
But hatred drilled into his brainPero el odio taladraba su cerebro
Come with me for some drinks, said the manAcompáñame a unos tragos dijo el hombre
I want to vent my deep sorrows in the endDesahogar quiero al final mis hondas penas

I was deceived by what I believed to be sincere and nobleMe engañó la que creí sincera y noble
With the one whom the same womb gave birth to usCon aquel que el mismo vientre a luz nos diera
The wounds that the traitors inflicted on meLas heridas que me hicieron los traidores
They are guilty if I die at this tableSon culpables si yo muero en esta mesa

One night I was returning homeUna noche que a mi hogar yo regresaba
I saw very clearly the betrayal they were doing to meVi muy claro la traición que ellos me hacían
In my bed there were two bodies that were cleaningEn mi lecho habían dos cuerpos que aseaban
To love each other my presence did not preventPara amarse mi presencia no impedía

A brother that life took from meUn hermano que la vida me arrancaba
And an unfaithful woman who destroyed my joyY una infiel que destrozaba mi alegría

How could I contain myself at that moment?Como pude contenerme en ese instante
If they deserved deathSi la muerte la tenían bien merecida
I felt so belittled and so cowardlyMe sentí tan rebajado y tan cobarde
Not to kill because they were my life's bloodNo matar porque eran sangre de mi vida

If the Lord gave me the courage to forgive themSi el señor me dio el valor de perdonarles
Both will go to hell in lifeAl infierno llegarán los dos en vida

One night I was returning homeUna noche que a mi hogar yo regresaba
I saw very clearly the betrayal they were doing to meVi muy claro la traición que ellos me hacían
In my bed there were two bodies that were cleaningEn mi lecho habían dos cuerpos que aseaban
To love each other my presence did not preventPara amarse mi presencia no impedía

A brother that life took from meUn hermano que la vida me arrancaba
And an unfaithful woman who destroyed my joyY una infiel que destrozaba mi alegría
