Lyrics of Ni en Defensa Propia - Vicente Fernandez

Ni en Defensa Propia (original)

Por primera vez no metí ni las manos
Ni en defensa propia evité la caída
Yo que anduve huyendo de un mundo de engaños
Vine a dar de lleno a lo peor de la vida
La primera vez que te tuve en mis brazos
Me decías llorando que no habías pecado
Pero ya tenías no se cuántos fracasos
Y querías borrar con mi amor tu pecado
Ya tenías el rostro cubierto de besos
Y en tu ser las huellas que dejan las penas
Si después de amarte te hicieron desprecio
Yo no he de pagar por las deudas ajenas
Te podría jurar que te amé con locura
Y jamás pense que llegara a perderte
Pero en vez de amores, me diste amarguras
Y así como eres prefiero perderte
Ya tenías el rostro cubierto de besos
Y en tu ser la huella que dejan las penas
Si después de amarte te hicieron desprecio
Yo no he de pagar por las deudas ajenas

(translation)

For the first time I didn't even put my hands
Not even in self-defense did I avoid the fall
I who was running away from a world of deceit
I came to give full to the worst of life
The first time I held you in my arms
You told me crying that you had not sinned
But you already had I don't know how many failures
And you wanted to erase your sin with my love
You already had your face covered with kisses
And in your being the traces that sorrows leave
If after loving you they made you contempt
I do not have to pay for the debts of others
I could swear that I loved you madly
And I never thought that I would lose you
But instead of love, you gave me bitterness
And as you are I prefer to lose you
You already had your face covered with kisses
And in your being the imprint left by sorrows
If after loving you they made you contempt
I do not have to pay for the debts of others
