Translation of the song lyrics Ay Pena, Penita - Carlos Cano

Ay Pena, Penita (original)

Si en el firmamento poder yo
Tuviera esta noche negra lo mismo
Que un pozo con un cuchillito de luna
Lunera cortaba los hierros de tu calabozo
Si yo fuera el rey de la luz del día
Del viento y del mar, cordeles de esclavo
Si hombre seguiría tu libertad
Ay pena penita pena, pena, pena de mi corazón
Que me corre por mis venas
Penas de la fuerza de un ciclón
Y es lo mismo que un nublao de tinieblas
Y pelenas y es un potro desbocao
Que no sabe a donde va
Y es un desierto de arena pena
Y es mi gloria y pena ay pena
Ay pena, ay pena penita pena
Yo no quiero flores, dinero, ni palma
Quiero que me vea llorar tu pesare
Y estar a tu vera cariño del alma
Bebiéndome el llanto de tu solear
Me duele los ojos de mirar sin verte
Relleno de mi que tiene la culpa
De tu mala suerte ni rosa de abril
Ay pena penita pena, pena, pena de mi corazon
Que me corre por mis venas
Penas de la fuerza de un ciclon
Y es lo mismo que un nublao de tinieblas
Y pelenas y es un potro desboca
Que no sabe a donde va
Y es un desierto de arena pena

(translation)

If in the firmament I can
Had this black night the same
That a well with a moon knife
Lunera cut the irons of your dungeon
If I were the king of daylight
From the wind and the sea, slave ropes
Yes man I would follow your freedom
Ay pena penita pity, pity, pity of my heart
that runs through my veins
Penalties of the force of a cyclone
And it is the same as a cloud of darkness
And you fight and it's a runaway colt
who does not know where he is going
And it's a desert of sorrow sand
And it is my glory and sorrow, oh sorrow
Oh pity, oh pity pity pity
I do not want flowers, money, or palm
I want you to see me cry your regrets
And to be at your side, dear soul
Drinking the cry of your solear
My eyes hurt from looking without seeing you
Filled with me who is to blame
Of your bad luck or rose of April
Ay pena penita pity, pity, pity of my heart
that runs through my veins
Penalties of the force of a cyclone
And it is the same as a cloud of darkness
And you fight and it's a runaway colt
who does not know where he is going
And it's a desert of sorrow sand
