Lyrics of Leña de Pirul - Lola Beltrán

Leña de Pirul (original)

Siempre que me hablan de ti
Es para hacerme llorar
Siempre que me hablan de ti
Es para darme la queja
Que te ha ido muy mal
Con lagrimas te advertí
Solo te van a engañar
Y hoy de fracaso en fracaso
Mencionas mi nombre
Y eso me hace llorar
Cuanto quieres porque me olvides
Cuanto quieres porque me dejes
Cuanto valen tus desprecios
Cuanto quieres porque te largues
Y me dejes vivir en paz
Pobre leña de pirul
Que no sirves ni pa' arder
Pobre leña de pirul
Que no sirves ni pa' arder
No para hacer llorar

(translation)

Whenever they talk to me about you
is to make me cry
Whenever they talk to me about you
It is to give me the complaint
that has gone very badly for you
With tears I warned you
they will only deceive you
And today from failure to failure
you mention my name
and that makes me cry
How much do you want because you forget me
How much do you want because you leave me
How much are your contempt worth?
How much do you want because you leave
And let me live in peace
Poor lollipop firewood
That you don't even serve to burn
Poor lollipop firewood
That you don't even serve to burn
not to make you cry
