Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Las Puertas De Mi Casa by Adalberto Santiago from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Ya esta cerrada con tres candados
It is already closed with three padlocks
Y remachada a la puerta negra
And riveted to the black door
Porque tus padres están celosos
because your parents are jealous
Y tienen miedo que yo te quiera
And they are afraid that I love you
Han de pensar que estando encerrada
They must think that being locked up
Vas a dejar pronto de quererme
You're going to stop loving me soon
Pero la puerta ni cien candados, van
But the door not even a hundred padlocks, they go
A mi poder determe
to my power to stop
Pero la puerta no es la culpable
But the door is not to blame
Que tu por dentro estés llorando
That you are crying inside
Tu a mi me quieres y yo te quiero la puerta negra
You love me and I love you the black door
Diles ahí por ay a tu padre y madre
Say there to your father and mother
Que si ellos el amor nunca gozaron
What if they never enjoyed love
Y si se amaban también la puerta
And if they also loved the door
La puerta negra se la cerraron
The black door was closed
Pero la puerta no es la culpable
But the door is not to blame
Que tu por dentro estés, llorando
That you are inside, crying
Tu a mi me quieres y yo te quiero
You love me and I love you
La puerta negra sale sobrando
The black door is superfluous
