You Gave Me a Mountain

Me diste una montaña

You Gave Me a Mountain

Nacido en el calor del desierto

Mi madre murió dándome la vida
My mother died givin' me life
Privados del amor de un padre
Deprived of the love of a father
Culpado por la pérdida de su esposa
Blamed for the loss of his wife

Sabes, Señor, he estado en una prisión
You know, Lord, I've been in a prison
Por algo que nunca he hecho
For something that I've never done
Ha sido una colina tras otra
It's been one hill after another
Pero los he escalado a todos, uno por uno
But I've climbed them all, one by one

Pero esta vez, Señor, me diste una montaña
But this time, Lord, you gave me a mountain
Una montaña a la que nunca subo
A mountain I may never climb
Y ya no es una colina
And is isn't a hill any longer
Esta vez me diste una montaña
You gave me a mountain this time

Mi mujer cansada de las dificultades
My woman tired of the hardships
Cansado del dolor y la lucha
Tired of the grief and the strife
Estoy cansado de trabajar para nada
So tired of workin' for nothin'
Cansado de ser mi esposa
Tired of bein' my wife

Ella tomó mi único rayo de sol
She took my one ray of sunshine
Ella tomó mi orgullo y mi alegría
She took my pride and my joy
Tomó mi razón para vivir
She took my reason for livin'
Se llevó a mi pequeño niño
She took my small baby boy

Así que esta vez, Señor, me diste una montaña
So this time, Lord, you gave me a mountain
Una montaña a la que nunca subo
A mountain I may never climb
Y ya no es una colina
And is isn't a hill any longer
Esta vez me diste una montaña
You gave me a mountain this time
