| Ando volando bajo,
| I'm flying low
|
| mi amor está por los suelos,
| my love is on the floor,
|
| y tú tan alto, y tan alto
| and you so high, and so high
|
| mirando mis desconsuelos
| looking at my sorrows
|
| sabiendo que soy un hombre
| knowing that I am a man
|
| que está muy lejos del cielo
| that is very far from heaven
|
| Ando volando bajo,
| I'm flying low
|
| nomás porque no me quieres,
| just because you don't love me,
|
| y estoy clavado contigo
| and i'm stuck with you
|
| teniendo tantos placeres,
| having so many pleasures,
|
| me gusta seguir tus pasos
| I like to follow your steps
|
| habiendo tantas mujeres
| having so many women
|
| Tú y las nubes me traen muy loco
| You and the clouds bring me very crazy
|
| tú y las nubes me van a matar
| you and the clouds are going to kill me
|
| yo pa' rriba volteo muy poco
| I turn around very little
|
| tú pa' bajo no sabes mirar
| you pa' bajo you don't know how to look
|
| Yo no nací pa' pobre
| I was not born to be poor
|
| me gusta todo lo bueno,
| I like everything good
|
| y tú tendrás que quererme,
| and you will have to love me,
|
| o en la batalla me muero,
| or in the battle I die,
|
| pero esa boquita tuya
| but that little mouth of yours
|
| me habrá de decir «te quiero»
| will have to tell me "I love you"
|
| Árbol de la esperanza
| tree of hope
|
| que vives solo en el campo,
| that you live alone in the countryside,
|
| tú dime si no la olvido,
| you tell me if I don't forget her,
|
| o dime si no la aguanto
| or tell me if I can't stand it
|
| que al fin y al cabo mis ojos
| that finally my eyes
|
| se van a llenar de llanto
| they will be filled with tears
|
| Tú y las nubes me traen muy loco
| You and the clouds bring me very crazy
|
| tú y las nubes me van a matar
| you and the clouds are going to kill me
|
| yo pa' rriba volteo muy poco
| I turn around very little
|
| tú pa' bajo no sabes mirar | you pa' bajo you don't know how to look |
