Los Consejos Del Difunto Lyrics in English Carlos Vives

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Los Consejos Del Difunto by Carlos Vives from Spanish to English.
Ya no se escucha a los viejos de la manada
You no longer hear the old ones from the pack
Ya no se escriben canciones enamoradas
Love songs are no longer written
No se conversa un café después de la jornada
A coffee conversation after the day is not had
Ya no parece importante una mirada
A glance no longer seems important
Pero contigo la vida me da la gana
But with you, life is worth it
Somos dos héroes cruzando la manejada
We are two heroes crossing the rough sea
Que derribamos gigantes como si nada
We knock down giants as if it were nothing
Y cuando llega la noche
And when night comes
Por eso vente conmigo, que el mundo tira para atrás
That's why come with me, the world pulls us back
Mejor nos vamos tranquilos porque para alante es para allá
It's better if we go calmly because forward is that way
Por eso vente conmigo, que tú me tienes bien loco
That's why come with me, you drive me crazy
Mejor nos vamos tranquilos y enamorando de a poco
It's better if we go calmly and fall in love little by little
Por eso elucubrando en este asunto
That's why speculating on this matter
Yo sigo los consejos del difunto
I follow the advice of the deceased
No miro a quién y le hago bien y punto
I don't care who it is, I do good and that's it
Y dejo testimonio escrito adjunto
And I leave written testimony attached
Yo pesqué un arenque
I caught a herring
Pero qué mal rato
But what a bad time
Cuando fui a guardarlo
When I went to store it
Se lo di fue al gato
I gave it to the cat
No tengo dinero
I don't have money
Pero tengo dueña
But I have a woman
No hay mayor fortuna
There is no greater fortune
Que una mujer buena
Than a good woman
Pero contigo la vida me da la gana
But with you, life is worth it
Somos dos héroes cruzando la marejada
We are two heroes crossing the rough sea
Que derribamos gigantes como si nada
We knock down giants as if it were nothing
Y cuando llega la noche
And when night comes
Por eso vente conmigo, que el mundo tira para atrás
That's why come with me, the world pulls us back
Mejor nos vamos tranquilos porque para alante es para allá
It's better if we go calmly because forward is that way
Por eso vente conmigo, que tú me tienes bien loco
That's why come with me, you drive me crazy
Mejor nos vamos tranquilos y enamorando de a poco
It's better if we go calmly and fall in love little by little
Y en este trasegar meditabundo
And in this meditative journey
Yo riego de canciones todo el mundo
I spread songs all over the world
Y para celebrar tu amor profundo
And to celebrate your deep love
Voy a pegar un grito vagabundo
I'm going to let out a wild shout
Y coge por allí y pasa por acá
And go over there and pass over here
Nos vemos en Cumbiana que el concierto va a empezar
See you in Cumbiana, the concert is about to start
Y coge por aquí y coge por allá
And go over here and go over there
Bailemos esta cumbia que la vida hay que gozar
Let's dance this cumbia, life is meant to be enjoyed
Y sube por aquí y pasa por acá
And go up here and pass over there
