Translation of the song lyrics La Valentina - Inti Illimani

La Valentina (original)

Valentina, Valentina,
yo te quisiera decir
que una pasión me domina
y es la que me hizo venir.
Dicen que por tus amores
un mal me van a seguir,
no le hace que sean el diablo
yo también me sé morir.
Si porque tomo tequila
mañana tomo jerez,
si porque me ven borracho
mañana ya no me ven.
Valentina, Valentina,
rendido estoy a tus pies,
si me han de matar mañana
que me maten de una vez.

La Valentina (translation)

Valentine, Valentine,
I would like to tell you
that a passion dominates me
and it is the one that made me come.
They say that for your love
a bad they will follow me,
it doesn't make them the devil
I also know how to die.
Yes because I drink tequila
tomorrow I drink sherry,
yes because they see me drunk
tomorrow they don't see me anymore.
Valentine, Valentine,
surrendered I am at your feet,
if they have to kill me tomorrow
kill me at once.
