Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Moneda by Gerardo Ortiz from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
A que mal giro dio la moneda
To what bad turn gave the coin
Me matan a mi hijo y estoy tras las rejas
My son is killed and I'm behind bars
No eh parado y no sigo pensando
I haven't stopped and I don't keep thinking
Porque la vida ahora se esta cobrando
Because life is now taking its toll
Por tantos errores que ahora estoy pagando
For so many mistakes I'm now paying for
A sido tan fácil estar encerrado
It's been so easy to be locked up
Extrañar el pasado me tiene afectado
Missing the past has me affected
Y para que sepan mi plan no ah parado
And just so you know my plan ah not stopped.
Que feo me sabe amarga la vida
How ugly life tastes bitter to me
Y si hay esperanzas es por mi familia
And if there is hope, it is for my family.
Tanto tiempo pase trabajando
So much time I spend working
Me sudaban las manos de aquel michoacano
My hands were sweating from that Michoacan
Forme una familia que se hizo pedazos
Form a family that fell apart
Maldito destino me tiene golpeado
Damn fate has me beaten
Maldigo el momento en el que me lo quitaron
I curse the moment it was taken from me
Perdone señor si algún dia le eh fallado
Sorry sir if one day I have failed you
Yo quise llevar una vida normal
I wanted to lead a normal life
Y llego la muerte y me puso a pensar
And death came and made me think
Que la gente buena sufre por igual
That good people suffer equally
Es una epidemia se solto la guerra
It is an epidemic that war is released
No mezclen lo malo con las cosas buenas
Don't mix bad with good things
