No Soy Monedita de Oro

I was born a northerner to the fullest,
I like to speak the truth,
I'm a stone that can't be smoothed
no matter how much you carve and carve,

I'm stubborn as a mule,
Where are you going that I can't find you?

They don't like me at your house
because I'm always singing,
They say I'm a mariachi
and that I don't have money

to buy you a wedding dress,
that I'm taking away your time.

I'm not a golden coin
to please everyone;
That's how I was born and that's how I am,
if they don't like me, too bad.

I have the sky as my roof,
just the sun as my blanket,
two arms to support you,
a heart for your life;

Go, run and tell your parents,
let's see who gives more for their daughter.

I'm not a golden coin
to please everyone;
That's how I was born and that's how I am,
if they don't like me, too bad.
