El Ejemplo
Los Tigres del Norte
The Example
Don't tell me you miss me now
Because I have changed with you
If you yourself opened my wings
It was your way, reason, and motive
Don't forget that you pushed me
To fly where it wasn't my nest
Many times I see you surprised
Because I kiss you and I'm affectionate
Only when you are with my children
Because alone I can't stand you anymore
It's because of them that I can't bring myself to
Demand the damn divorce
Because I shouldn't set the example
Of leaving my children without a father
I prefer to die by your side
Even if we live as rivals
In front of them, I'll caress you
But it's false, you know it well
If one day my children ask you
That fate has distanced us
You tell them not to worry
That we live very much in love
That your icy body gives me the warmth
That I have always desired
Because I shouldn't set the example
Of leaving my children without a father
I prefer to die by your side
Even if we live as rivals
In front of them, I'll caress you
But it's false, you know it well
