Mother's Advice

Consejo de Madre

She doesn't know what I have in my heartNo sabe que tengo en el corazon
Without rhyme or reason she said goodbyeSin ton ni son me dijo adios
Without realizing, she forgot about meSin darse cuenta me olvido
She didn't know, I didn't know, and she leftNo supo no supe y se marcho

She didn't know, I didn't know, and she leftNo supo no supe y se marcho

Seeing her in the distanceAl verla en la lejania
Tears were falling from my eyesLagrimas se me salian
I promised that dayYo que prometi ese dia
When my mother diedCuando mi madre moria
Not to pay attention if it was halfwayNo hacer caso si media
Not to cry because I believedNo llorar porque creia
That my old lady would changeQue mi vieja cambiaria
In heaven if she sawEn el cielo si veia
That her little boy, whom she lovedQue su hijito al que queria
Was suffering for anotherLo que por otra sufria
She would suspend her prayersSus resos suspenderia
Every night, every dayCada noche, cada dia
She would never do it againNunca mas ella lo haria
Seeing my melancholyAl ver mi melancolia
She sensed it more in her mouthMas su boca presentia
In the space, I heard herEn el espacio la oia

What the good one deservedLo que el bueno merecia
The bad one took itEl malo se lo cogia

And another one already ate itY otro ya se lo comia
When a woman wantedCuando una mujer queria
Her motives pursued herSus motives persegia
And the one I had beforeY la que antes yo tenia
The one who broke my soulLa que el alma me partia
