Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tortuga by Caifanes from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Verse 1
Ahí viene la noche
Here comes the night
Lo más probable es que duermas
Chances are you'll sleep
Ahí viene la noche
Here comes the night
Lo más seguro es que mueras
You'll probably die
Hoy llueven martillos
Hammers rain today
Lo más probable es que peguen
Chances are they'll hit
Hoy bajó la marea
Today the tide went down
Se fue llevando sus restos
He left, taking his remains
Chorus 1
Ay, tortuga, vete mar adentro
Oh, turtle, go offshore
Y déjanos y olvídanos
And leave us and forget us
Ay, tortuga, vete mar adentro
Oh, turtle, go offshore
Y déjanos en este infierno
And leave us in this hellhole
Verse 2
Ahí viene la noche
Here comes the night
Lo más probable es que mueras
Chances are you'll die
Hoy la arena es testigo
Today the sand is a witness
De tu peor enemigo
From your worst enemy
Bridge
Y no sabes
And you don't know
Y no te imaginas
And you can't imagine
Cómo lastimas
How you hurt
Chorus 2
Ay, tortuga, vete mar adentro
Oh, turtle, go offshore
Y déjanos y olvídanos
And leave us and forget us
Ay, tortuga, vete mar adentro
Oh, turtle, go offshore
Y déjanos en este infierno
And leave us in this hellhole
