Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Paloma Negra by Leonel Garcia from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Ya me canso de llorar y no amanece
I'm tired of crying and it doesn't dawn
Ya no sé si maldecirte o por ti rezar
I don't know whether to curse you or pray for you
Tengo miedo de buscarte y de encontrarte
I'm afraid to look for you and to find you
Donde me aseguran mis amigos que te vas
Where my friends assure me that you are going
Hay momentos en que quisiera mejor rajarme
There are times when I would rather quit
Y arrancarme ya los clavos de mi penar
And pull out the nails of my pain
Pero mis ojos se mueren sin mirar tus ojos
But my eyes die without looking at your eyes
Y mi cariño con la aurora te vuelve a esperar
And my love with the dawn awaits you again
Ya agarraste por tu cuenta las parrandas
You already grabbed the parrandas on your own
Paloma negra, paloma negra, dónde, dónde andarás
Black dove, black dove, where, where will you go
Ya no juegues con mi honra parrandera
Don't play with my partying honor anymore
Si tus caricias deben ser mías, de nadie más
If your caresses should be mine, no one else's
Y aunque te amo con locura, ya no vuelvas
And although I love you madly, don't come back
Paloma negra eres la reja de un penar
Black dove, you are the grate of a penar
Quiero ser libre, vivir mi vida con quien yo quiera
I want to be free, live my life with whoever I want
Dios dame fuerzas, que me estoy muriendo por irla a buscar
God give me strength, I'm dying to go look for her
Ya agarraste por tu cuenta las parrandas
You already grabbed the parrandas on your own
