Noche De Reyes Lyrics in English Carlos Gardel

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Noche De Reyes by Carlos Gardel from Spanish to English.
La quise como nadie tal vez haya querido
I loved her like no one has ever wanted
y la adoraba tanto que hasta celos sentí
and she adored her so much that I even felt jealous
Por ella me hice bueno, honrado y buen marido
Because of her I became good, honest and a good husband
y en hombre de trabajo, mi vida convertí
and I turned my life into a working man
Al cabo de algún tiempo de unir nuestro destino
After some time of uniting our destiny
nacía un varoncito, orgullo de mi hogar
A little boy was born, pride of my home
y era mi dicha tanta al ver claro mi camino
and it was my great joy to see my path clearly
ser padre de familia, honrado y trabajar
be a family man, honest and work
Pero una noche de Reyes
But one Twelfth Night
cuando a mi hogar regresaba
when I returned home
comprobé que me engañaba
I found out that he was deceiving me
con el amigo más fiel
with the most faithful friend
Y ofendido en mi amor propio
And offended in my self-love
quise vengar el ultraje
I wanted to avenge the outrage
lleno de ira y coraje
full of anger and courage
sin compasión los maté!
Without mercy I killed them!
Que cuadro compañeros, no quiero recordarlo!
What a picture guys, I don't want to remember it!
Me llena de vergüenza, de odio y de rencor
It fills me with shame, hatred and resentment
De que vale ser bueno! Si aparte de vengarme
What's the point of being good! Yes apart from getting revenge
clavaron en mi pecho la flecha del dolor
They stuck the arrow of pain into my chest
Por eso compañero, como hoy es día de Reyes
That's why my friend, since today is Three Kings Day
los zapatitos el nene afuera los dejo
the baby left the shoes outside
Espera un regalito y no sabe que a la madre
He expects a little gift and doesn't know that it's his mother
por falsa y por canalla, su padre la mató!
Because she was false and a scoundrel, her father killed her!
