La Frontera Lyrics in English Juan Gabriel , Julión Álvarez, J Balvin

Home / Lyrics Translation / Juan Gabriel / La Frontera

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Frontera by Juan Gabriel from Spanish to English.

I really like being on the border

Because the people are simpler and more sincere

I like how they have fun, how they lead

Life cheerful, positive and without problems

Here everything is different

Everything, everything is different

On the border, on the border

On the border

I really, really like being here

Because the people are happier every time

They live better, there's lots of love and they get ahead

Because here the people are good

Here everything is different

Everything, everything is different

On the border, on the border

On the border

How I would marvel at it

How you would marvel at it

If you came, if you lived, if you were here

If you sang, if you played and danced here

In broad daylight, in broad daylight, yeah, in broad daylight

Go Chiapas

And Veracruz

Go Juárez

Go you!!

People don't meddle in what doesn't concern them

Everyone respects and each one lives their life

The most beautiful, the most divine

Is that it's very frank and more and more united

Here everything is different

Everything, everything is different

On the border, on the border

On the border

What's the border, sir

The border is so cool, Julión

It's like a sun, it sees everything

The moon comes out, comes out pretty and comes out full of love

Here everything is different

And that's thanks to the people

On the border

On the border, on the border

J Balvin

On the border

I really, really like being here

What a party with my buddy Julión

And Juan Gabriel, so we're doing great

The past left us scars

Thank God now we're all happy

On the border everything was different

All kinds of people are welcome

Sing, dance and be happy

Finally I'll never leave here

And I won't leave here until I die

Because here you drink, you dance and the people are good

And I won't leave here until I die

Because here you drink, you dance and the people are good

The border, the border

Because the people are happier every time

Because here you drink and you dance

Because the people are good, yeah

I really like being on the border!
