Orgullosa y bonita
Miguel Aceves Mejía
Proud and Pretty
I've been drinking and crying for three days
your pride and forgetfulness,
and today I come to beg you to forget everything
that has happened.
If you know well
that I'm dying,
Why are you like this?,
forget your tears
and mine and be mine.
You, proud and pretty,
me, so jealous and rebellious,
you, waiting for the date,
me, dying to see you.
I always boasted
of being conceited
and knowing how to endure,
instead with you
I'm just a coward who knows how to cry.
