Gracias – Lyrics Meaning in English – Grupo Firme & Grupo Codiciado
This song is about a man who is thanking all the people in his life, those who talked badly of him, those who know him, and those who ask questions about his life. He asks those people to mind their business as they don’t contribute anything to his life.
Singer: Grupo Firme & Grupo Codiciado
Gracias por aquellos
Que han hablado mal de mí
Gracias por aquellos
Que preguntan más por mí
Thank you to those
Who talked madly about me
Thank you to those
Who asked more about me
Que si vacaciono en París
Que cuánto pesa mi veliz
Que si en mi casa soy feliz
Que si el anillo es de oro gris
¿Qué les importa? ¿Usted qué aporta?
If I vacation in Paris
How much my suitcase weighs
If I am happy in my house
If the ring is of grey gold
What does it matter to you? What do you contribute?
No ando compitiendo
Con los que a una vez comí
Todos traen su pleito
Y la vendetta contra mí
I don’t go around competing
With those I once ate
Everyone brings their lawsuits
And the vendetta against me
Qué mal que se porten así
Mientras yo acá con Benjamín
Hice amistad y el porvenir
Se ve llegando al mil por mil
No traigo broncas, la vida es corta
How bad they behave like this
While I’m here with Benjamin
I made friends and the future
Is arriving at thousand by thousand
I don’t bring insults, life is short
Pero si piensan que por eso he de pararle
Pues se equivocan
No he de parar ya
But if you think because of that I will stop you
Well you’re wrong
There’s no stopping now
Compadre
Puro Codiciado, pareja
Y puro Grupo Firme, viejo
Buddy,
Pure Codiciado, pair
And pure Grupo Firme, oldie
Les tiendes la mano
Y se agarran más de ti
Les abrí la puerta
Y se quedaron a vivir
You offer your hand
And they snatch more of you
I opened the door for them
And they stayed to live
Su material no es tan sutil
Les falta más por descubrir
Habilidad pa’ describir
A ver si callan hoy por fin
Y tienen poca vergüenza propia
Their material is not vso subtle
They have more to discover
Ability to describe
To see if they finally shut up today
And they have little shame of their own
Gracias por aquellos
Que conozco por aquí
Gracias por aquel
Que en realidad sabe de mí
Thank you for those
That I know around here
Thank you for that one
Who truly knows about me
Con quién vacaciono en París
Con quién voy llenando el veliz
Quién en mi casa, sí, es feliz
Tirando nubes de humo gris
No nos importa la gente tonta
With whom I vacation in Paris
With whom I’m filling the suitcase
Who, in my house, is happy
Throwing clouds of grey smoke
Dumb people don’t matter to us
Que él que se la pasa criticando que esté alegre
Sé que nunca me soportan
Me despido ya
He who spends time criticizing, may he be happy
I know they never support me
I bid farewell now
