Amor Verdadero

Guajira, the son calls you, to dance, to
Enjoy.
Guajira, the son calls you, to dance, to
Enjoy.

Friend, order another drink, damn it,
That this singer invites you.
Even though you don't care
I'm going to tell you the story of my life.

I loved a woman very much
The dearest to my soul.
She betrayed me, damn it
What an ungrateful and bad behavior.

She made me drink
She made me a lost cause
I turned to drugs, my friend,
And ended up in jail.

My friends forgot about me
Only my mother cried
I prayed and begged to God
To save her son.

Remember what I tell you
That in prison and in bed
Only our mother loves us, damn it,
There's no money, no friends
Beautiful guajira, my son calls you!

And on the piano Don Rubén González.
Listen, friend, look who's coming over there,
Friend Barbarito Torres....Special.
Guajira, the son calls you, to dance, to enjoy.

The two words that most
Fill me with joy
Are when they call me son, are when I say
Mom.

Guajira, the son calls you, to dance, to enjoy.

The mother is a fountain
Of honey that never stops flowing
She's a star on earth
Shines much brighter than the sun.

Guajira, the son calls you, to dance, to enjoy.

She's not afraid of the darkness
Of vice and all its horror.
I think of my mother
And her charm covers me with tenderness.
