Ay! mi vida, no creas que es cosa de juego
Alas! My life, don't think it's a game
Tengo mi vida perdida, desde que te vi en San Diego
I have my life lost, since I saw you in San Diego
Te fuiste para el molino, y yo me vine para el Valle
You left for the mill, and I came to the Valley
Pero me dejaste herido, y ahora tienes que curarme
But you left me hurt, and now you have to heal me
Porque yo tengo un dolor, dentro de mi corazón
Because I have a pain, inside my heart
Porque un corazón herido, hay que curarse con cariño
Because a wounded heart must be healed with affection
Ay! mi vida, si vieras como suspiro
Alas! My life, if you saw as a sigh
Cuando yo paso de largo por el ramal del molino
When I pass by the branch of the mill
Porque me acuerdo de ti
Because I remember you
y yo me pongo a pensar
and I start thinking
Que tan cerquita de mí
How close to me
y sin poderte mirar
and without being able to look at you
Pero te voy a ver
But I'll see you
Pa' dejar de suspirar
Stop sighing
Pero yo te voy a ver
But I'll see you
Algún día cruzo el ramal
Someday I cross the branch
Ay! mi vida, ay mi vida
Alas! My life, woe my life
Que desesperado vivo
How desperate I live
Tengo mi cuerpo en el Valle
I have my body in the Valley
Pero mi alma esta contigo
But my soul is with you
y debes de darte cuenta
and you must realize
Que si por tu culpa muero
That if because of you I die
En todita la provincia
In the whole province
Se sabrá cuando yo muera
It will be known when I die
El pobrecito Escalona
Poor little Escalona
Lo mató una molinera
He was killed by a miller.
y eso de la pasa a los hombres
And that happens to men
Por querer de esa manera
For wanting that way
Por eso prohíben los santos
That is why they forbid the saints
De que un hombre quiera tanto
That a man wants so much
