Esta Noche
José Alfredo Jiménez
Tonight
Tonight I'm going out partying
To see if I can shake off
A sorrow that I carry in my soul
That overwhelms me and makes me cry
If I come across Death out there
I won't fear it like a man
If I lost your love forever
What do I care about losing life
I tried to live without looking at her
I fought not to be unhappy
And I only found two paths
To win her over or stop living
Tonight I'll serenade her
I don't care about losing or winning
Tonight I'll sing to the ungrateful one
Three songs to make her cry
If they kill me at the foot of her window
They would be doing me a favor like a man
What more can I ask of life
Than to die next to my love
I tried to live without looking at her
I fought not to be unhappy
And I only found two paths
To win her over or stop living
