Translation of the song lyrics Duquesa - Cafe Quijano

Duquesa (original)

Ella quiso que su hija
Se vistiera de duquesa
Que no fuera cenicienta
Que la vieran en calesas
Nunca quiso que su hija
Se vistiera de plebeya
Nunca me quiso a m
Tuve las manos llenas
De bondad y de cario
Nunca tuve las monedas
Que compraran apellidos
Tuve padres muy normales
Sin ducados ni castillos
Nunca me quiso a m
Dicen los sabios que el tiempo sabe
Poner cada cosa en el sitio que cabe
Pasan los aos y aqu me tiene
Con unos cambios en los papeles
La conciencia nunca engaa
Siempre y cuando el alma sepa lo que guarda
Y esta vida es tan larga que seguiremos
Vindonos las caras
Ella sabe que recuerdo
Su desprecio y su cinismo
Hoy se acerca con saludos
Como si yo no fuera el mismo
No me importa ser corts
Aunque pensando le digo
Perdono pero no olvido
Si valoro lo que tengo
Mejor que no me quisiera
Con los aos lo agradezco
Hoy me quiere una plebeya
Con Fernndez de apellido
Es mi ms bella doncella
La bella de las bellas
Dicen los sabios que el tiempo sabe
Poner cada cosa en el sitio que cabe
Pasan los aos y aqu me tiene
Con unos cambios en los papeles
La conciencia nunca engaa
Siempre y cuando el alma sepa lo que guarda
Y esta vida es tan larga que seguiremos
Vindonos las caras

Duquesa (translation)

She wanted her daughter
She dressed up as a duchess
That she was not Cinderella
That they see her in carriages
She never wanted her daughter
She dressed as a commoner
she never loved me
I had my hands full
Of kindness and affection
I never had the coins
that they will buy surnames
I had very normal parents
No duchies or castles
never loved me
The wise say that time knows
Put everything in the place it fits
Years go by and here I am
With a few changes in the papers
conscience never deceives
As long as the soul knows what it keeps
And this life is so long we'll carry on
seeing our faces
She knows that she remember
His contempt for her and his cynicism
She today she approaches with greetings
As if I were not the same
I don't mind being polite
Although thinking I tell him
I forgive but I do not forget
If I value what I have
better not want me
Over the years I appreciate it
Today a commoner wants me
With Fernndez as a surname
She is my fairest maiden
The beauty of the beauties
The wise say that time knows
Put everything in the place it fits
Years go by and here I am
With a few changes in the papers
conscience never deceives
As long as the soul knows what it keeps
And this life is so long we'll carry on
seeing our faces
