I'm in the corner of a canteen

Listening to a song that I requested

They are serving me my tequila right now

My thoughts are already heading towards you

I know that your memory is my misfortune

And I come here just to remember

How bitter are the things that happen to us

When there is a woman who pays poorly

Who does not know in this life

The well-known betrayal

that a bad love leaves us

Who does not come to the canteen

demanding his tequila

And demanding his song

they are serving me

already the one of the stirrup

Right now I don't know if I have faith

right now only

I already ask them to play

again the one that left

Who does not know in this life

The well-known betrayal

that a bad love leaves us

Who does not come to the canteen

demanding his tequila

And asking for his song

they are serving me now

the one with the stirrup

Right now I don't know if I have faith

Right now

I only ask you

let them play again

the one that left

Did you like this lyrics translation?

This song, "Tu Recuerdo y Yo" by Leonel Garcia featuring Maria Toledo, is a classic tale of heartbreak and trying to forget someone who did you wrong. Our singer is in a cantina, listening to a song they requested, and drinking tequila. They admit, "Yo sé que tu recuerdo es mi desgracia" [I know your memory is my misfortune], and they're there just to remember how bitter things are when "hay una mujer que paga mal" [there's a woman who pays badly].

It's a relatable feeling, right? The song asks, "Quién no sabe en esta vida la traición tan conocida que nos deja un mal amor?" [Who doesn't know in this life the well-known betrayal that a bad love leaves us?]. And who hasn't ended up in a cantina, demanding tequila and a song to drown their sorrows? By the end, they're on their last drink, "la del estribo" [the stirrup cup], and they're not even sure if they have faith anymore. All they want is for the musicians to play "la que se fue" [the one that left] again. It's a raw, honest look at dealing with a broken heart.
