Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Reproches Al Viento by La Original Banda El Limón de Salvador Lizárraga from Spanish to English.
Dime Dios mío, ¿por qué reniego?
Tell me my God, why reniego?
¿Por qué conforme no puedo estar?
Why can't I be?
Si me molesta mirar pa' arriba, ¿Por qué me diste un bajo lugar?
If it bothers me to look up, why did you give me a low place?
Por ser de abajo, me despreciaron y pisotearon mi dignidad
For being below, they despised me and trampled my dignity
Más vale un año de vacas gordas que cien de perro en cualquier lugar
A year of fat cows is better than a hundred dog anywhere
El amor y el dinero no se logran nunca sin riesgo
Love and money are never achieved without risk
Sin jugar he perdido y yo quiero arañar el cielo
Without playing I have lost and I want to scratch the sky
Y lo voy a lograr o en la batalla me muero
And I will achieve it or in the battle I die
Dios mío, dame tu mano si me quieres ver regresar
My God, give me your hand if you want to see me return
Esas montañas azul acero me traen recuerdos de un gran lugar
Those steel blue mountains bring me memories of a great place
Que hasta los vientos me han reprochado porque a mi tierra no he vuelto más
That even the winds have reproached me because I have not returned anymore
Y es que mis manos están vacías y así no pienso volver jamás
And it is that my hands are empty and I never think to come back
Yo tuve un sueño que no he logrado si no lo logro no vuelvo más
I had a dream that I haven't achieved if I don't achieve it, I don't come back
El amor y el dinero no se logran nunca sin riesgo
Love and money are never achieved without risk
Sin jugar he perdido y yo quiero arañar el cielo
Without playing I have lost and I want to scratch the sky
Y lo voy a lograr o en la batalla me muero
And I will achieve it or in the battle I die
Dios mío, dame tu mano si me quieres ver regresar
My God, give me your hand if you want to see me return
