El Muchacho Triste

The Sad Boy

El Muchacho Triste

When you were with meCuando estabas conmigo
I had a face for my smileMe faltaba cara para mi sonrisa
I loved showing you off on the streetMe gustaba lucirte en la calle
In the park, at the dance, at churchEn el parque, en el baile, en la misa

The mariachis played when they saw me comingTocaban los mariachis al verme llegando
The happy boyEl muchacho alegre
Now, seeing my painAhora, de ver mi pena
The neighbor's dogs howl when they see meLos perros vecinos aúllan al verme

If you only knew how much you changed my lifeSi vieras cuántas cosas cambiaste en mi vida
When you leftCuando te fuiste
To keep it short, they now call mePara no hacerla larga, me apodan ahora

When you were with meCuando estabas conmigo
I wanted to add two hours to the dayQuería aumentarle dos horas al día
Good thing I didn'tQué bueno que no lo hice
Otherwise, I'd miss you for twenty-six hoursSi no, veintiséis horas te extrañaría

When you were with meCuando estabas conmigo
My chestnut horse danced with joyMi caballo moro, alegre, bailaba
Now, seeing my pain, watching me sufferAhora, de ver mi pena, de verme sufrir
Even the corn won't finishNi el maicito se acaba

If you only knew how much you changed my lifeSi vieras cuántas cosas cambiaste en mi vida
When you leftCuando te fuiste
To keep it short, they now call mePara no hacerla larga, me apodan ahora
