Amargo Dolor

Bitter Pain

Amargo Dolor

My friends, I just come to tell youAmigos míos, nomás vengo a decirles
The cause and the reason for my bitter painLa causa y el motivo de mi amargo dolor
That ungrateful woman whom I loved so muchQue la mujer ingrata a quien yo amaba tanto
I hate her with horror and curse her loveLa odio con espanto y maldigo su amor

But oh, when I see her I remember her kissesPero ay, cuando la miro me acuerdo de sus besos
And the horrible sadness I can't remedyY la horrible tristeza no puedo remediar
I wish to poison her or take away her existenceQuisiera envenenarla o quitarle la existencia
Because I was under the belief that I would beg herPorque estaba en la creencia que le iba yo a rogar

My poor mother gets tired of telling meLa pobre de mi madre se cansa de decirme
Not to drink wine anymore, do her that favorQue ya no tome vino que le haga ese favor
The cause of this vice was that ungrateful womanLa causa de este vicio fue esa mujer ingrata
Because I didn't have money to buy her lovePorque no tuve plata para comprar su amor

When I'm a little drunk, I light a cigaretteCuando ando borrachillo, enciendo un cigarrillo
And the match's light increases my painY la luz del cerillo aumenta mi dolor
I wish to poison her or take away her existenceQuisiera envenenarla o quitarle la existencia
Because I was under the belief that I would beg herPorque estaba en la creencia que le iba yo a rogar

My poor mother gets tired of telling meLa pobre de mi madre se cansa de decirme
Not to drink wine anymore, do her that favorQue ya no tome vino que le haga ese favor
The cause of this vice was that ungrateful womanLa causa de este vicio fue esa mujer ingrata
Because I didn't have money to buy her lovePorque no tuve plata para comprar su amor
