Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Y Qué [Mariachi] by Alfredo Olivas from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
¿Y qué? Si fue cesárea o natural
So what? If it was cesarean section or natural
¿Y qué? Si no llegué a los 9 meses
So what? If I didn't make it to 9 months
Si yo no cargué el peso del morral
If I did not carry the weight of the backpack
Y primero cuido mis intereses
And first I take care of my interests
Antes que los de ella
Before hers
¿Y qué? Si era muy joven pa' encargar
So what? If I was too young to order
Si a los consejos hizo caso omiso
If the advice was ignored
Gracias a eso puedo celebrar
Thanks to that I can celebrate
Y presumir al mundo ser el hijo
And show off to the world being the son
De la mujer mas bella
From the most beautiful woman
Y ahora me van a disculpar
And now they're going to excuse me.
Por esta letra mal acomodada
For this ill-arranged letter
Pero como se le dice a mamá
But as you say to mom
Lo tanto que se le ama
How much you love him
Pues a mi se me hizo poco
For little was done to me
Regalarle un lucero
Give him a star
Si con eso no demuestro
If with that I do not demonstrate
Lo mucho que yo la quiero
How much I love her
Y es que se me hizo tan poco
And it is that I did so little
Darle una perla del mar
Give it a pearl of the sea
Se la compraría con gusto
I would gladly buy it
Pero la conozco y se que ella no es material
But I know her and I know she's not material.
Les voy a presentar a mi mamá
I'm going to introduce you to my mom
Y yo que me creo todo un cantautor
And I think I'm a singer-songwriter
No encuentro como acabar estas líneas
I can't find how to finish these lines
Lo juro que no es por falta de amor
I swear it's not for lack of love
Es falta de poesía
It's a lack of poetry
Insisto se me hizo poco
I insist I did little
Regalarle un lucero
Give him a star
Si con eso no demuestro
If with that I do not demonstrate
Lo mucho que yo la quiero
How much I love her
Y es que se me hizo tan poco
And it is that I did so little
Darle una perla del mar
Give it a pearl of the sea
Se la compraría con gusto
I would gladly buy it
Pero la conozco y se que ella no es material
But I know her and I know she's not material.
No tiene precio un amor tan real
Such a real love is priceless
