Ni El Dinero, Ni Nadie
Miguel Aceves Mejía
Neither Money, Nor Anyone
Because I am who I am
without reason you despise me
because I live among people
that you say are not at your level.
You don't let me sing at your gate
like others sing to you
nor do you let me shout that I love you
with deep tenderness.
Because I am who I am
your affection is slipping away from me
because I didn't make money in the world
I am being defeated.
I have no right to anything
for being a vagabond
but I know deep down in your soul
you are adoring me.
I can't imagine
that your love will end for me
neither money, nor anything, nor anyone
can separate us
there are memories that never fade
and that's how ours are
to forget so many things
they would have to kill us.
If you really leave
tell me to my face
if you plan to send me a letter
don't even bother writing it.
This goodbye, my love
I demand it looking at your face
if there's no love in your eyes anymore
I will leave your life.
