El Mala Estrella
Ahí les va el nuevo corrido,
que es la historia de un amigo
que nació con mala estrella.
Anda muy enamorado
pero mal correspondido
pos nació con mala estrella.
Yo le digo no seas tonto
ya no le hagas tanto al loco
la muchacha no te quiere.
Yo sé bien que anda volada
con un tipo que es muy hombre
pero como es muy tu amigo,
mejor no te doy su nombre.
Qué voy a hacer
si cada que me mira
me dice y me suspira
que como yo no hay otro.
Qué voy a hacer
si yo también la miro,
le digo y le suspiro
que con su amor soy todo.
Pero él sigue con su sueño
de llegar a ser su dueño
y la muchacha no lo quiere.
Yo lo mando a la cantina
que se acabe una botella,
pero ya ni el vino le hace
pos nació con mala estrella.
The Bad Star
Here comes the new corrido,
which is the story of a friend
who was born under a bad star.
He's very much in love
but not reciprocated well
because he was born under a bad star.
I tell him don't be foolish
stop acting crazy
the girl doesn't love you.
I know well she's infatuated
with a guy who's very manly
but since he's your good friend,
I better not give you his name.
What am I going to do
if every time she looks at me
she says and sighs
that there's no one else like me.
What am I going to do
if I also look at her,
I tell her and sigh
that with her love I'm everything.
But he continues with his dream
to become her owner
and the girl doesn't want him.
I send him to the bar
to finish a bottle,
but not even the wine helps him
because he was born under a bad star.
