El Espejo Lyrics in English Cornelio Reyna
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Espejo by Cornelio Reyna from Spanish to English.
Rodeada de amigas te encontrabas
You were surrounded by friends
La tarde que frente a ti pasaba
The afternoon that passed before you
Con tristeza oí que te decían
With sadness I heard that they told you
Que baja está cayendo tu mirada
That your gaze is falling low
Yo sé que mi cariño haz despreciado
I know that you have scorned my love
Mil hombres te ofrecen sus riquezas
A thousand men offer you their riches
Yo solo un corazón casi postrero
I only have an almost final heart
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza
Because I am sunk in poverty
Las nubes por el cielo van llorando
The clouds across the sky go crying
Las aves van cantando mi tristeza
The birds go singing my sadness
Sólo tú de mi ya no te acuerdas
Only you no longer remember me
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza
Because I am sunk in poverty
Sólo tú de mi ya no te acuerdas
Only you no longer remember me
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza
Because I am sunk in poverty
Ya casi no recuerdo quien me dijo
I almost don't remember who told me
Cuidado no vayas a humillarte
Careful, don't go humiliate yourself
Tal vez fueron palabras de mi madre
Maybe they were words from my mother
Palabras de un cariño
Words of an affection
Que no podía engañarme
That could not deceive me
Collares de perlas te habrán dado
They must have given you pearl necklaces
Dinero y amor según parece
Money and love so it seems
Yo espero que el espejo te defraude
I hope that the mirror disappoints you
Al fin que la pobreza no envejece
After all poverty doesn't age
Las nubes por el cielo van llorando
The clouds across the sky go crying
Las aves van cantando mi tristeza
The birds go singing my sadness
Sólo tú de mi ya no te acuerdas
Only you no longer remember me
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza
Because I am sunk in poverty
Sólo tú de mi ya no te acuerdas
Only you no longer remember me
Porque yo estoy hundido en la pobreza
Because I am sunk in poverty
