Por Las Parrandas
Valentín Elizalde
For the Parties
For the parties
I lost my parents
I lost your kisses
I lost my honor
Because of the misfortune
Of being a drunk
My life sank
Into perdition
A thousand times
My holy mother
Advised me
Against alcohol
The poor thing
Died crying
Thinking of her son
Who didn't understand
For the parties
I lost the kisses
And a great affection
That forgot me
Because of the drink
My poor life
Sank into the mud
And perdition
If the parties
Were the cause
Of my tragedy
And my suffering
Let the drinks come
So that my sad life
May end
That I will cry
For the parties
I lost the kisses
And a great affection
That forgot me
Because of the drink
My poor life
Sank into the mud
And perdition
If the parties
Were the cause
Of my tragedy
And my suffering
Let the drinks come
So that my sad life
May end
That I will cry
