Singer: Marco Antonio Solís
Puedes irte que mas da
Seria inutil detenerte
Mi pobreza no se va
Y tu juegas con tu suerte
You can leave, what does it matter
It would be useless to stop you
My poverty won’t go away
And you’re playing with your luck
A donde piensas llegar
Cargando con lo que sientes
Ofreciste tu traición
Y ya has agarrado cliente
Where do you think to go
Carrying what you feel
You gave your betrayal
And you’ve already found a customer
Verás cuanto es que vale
Lo que del alma sale
Verás que todo es nada
Con la vida comprada
You’ll see the truth
What comes from the soul
You’ll see that it all means nothing
When life itself is bought
Algún día vas a saber
Lo que se acabo primero
Si lo que sientes por mí
O su monton de dinero
One day you’ll know
What ended first
What you felt for me
Or his pile of money
Ya no nos vamos a ver
A ver quien siente mas frio
En las noches su calor
Tendras extrañando el mío
We won’t see each other again
We’ll see who feels colder.
At night, you’ll have his warmth,
But you’ll miss mine
Algún día vas a saber
Lo que se acabo primero
Si lo que sientes por mí
O su monton de dinero
One day you’ll know
What ended first
What you felt for me
Or his pile of money
Ya no nos vamos a ver
A ver quien siente mas frio
En las noches su calor
Tendras extrañando el mío
We won’t see each other again
We’ll see who feels colder.
At night, you’ll have his warmth,
But you’ll miss mine
