El Canalla

The Scoundrel

El Canalla

It makes me sadMe da tristeza
And ashamed to tell themY verguenza contarles
That due to clumsinessQue por torpeza
I fell in loveYo fui a enamorarme
With an ungrateful loveDe un amor ingrato

I was his love for a momentYo fui su amor de un rato
An adventure and then his forgetfulnessUna aventura y después su olvido
In my misfortuneEn mi desgracia
I suffer in lifeSufro en la vida
For that ungrateful lovePor ese ingrato querer

Never in my life did I thinkJamás en mi vida pensé
That he would play meQue me hiciera una jugada
Never in my life did I thinkJamás en mi vida pensé
Never in my life did I thinkJamás en mi vida pensé
That one day he would betray meQue un día él me traicionara

That's what I get for being foolishEso me pasa por tonta
For being in lovePor estar enamorada
I didn't listen to my motherNo le hice caso a mi madre
And now I'm desperateY hoy estoy desesperada

Thinking he loved mePensando en que me quería
I spent my life dedicated to himMe pasé la vida dedicada a él
And one day he betrayed meY un día mi hizo una traición
For another love he left mePor otro querer me dejó
Why did the scoundrel do this to mePor qué me lo hizo el canalla
Listen well to what I sayOigan bien lo que les digo
He will pay for this betrayalEsta traición me la paga

Look, he even took away my nameMiren, me quitó hasta el nombre
This debt he will payEste deudal me lo salda
I know well where he hidesYo sé bien donde se esconde
I will find him wherever he isLo encontraré donde se halla
I used to think he was a manAntes pensé que era un hombre
And he turned out to be a great scoundrelY resultó un gran canalla
