El Botecito Lyrics in English Los Hijos Del Pueblo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Botecito by Los Hijos Del Pueblo from Spanish to English.
Es mi orgullo haber nacido en el barrio más humilde
It is my pride to have been born in the humblest neighborhood
Alejado del bullicio de la falsa sociedad
Away from the hustle and bustle of false society
Yo no tuve la desgracia de no ser hijo del pueblo
I did not have the misfortune of not being a child of the people
Yo me cuento entre la gente que no tiene falsedad
I count myself among the people who have no falsehood
Mi destino es muy parejo, yo lo quiero como venga
My destiny is very even, I want it as it comes
Soportando una tristeza o detrás de una ilusión
Enduring sadness or chasing an illusion
Voy camino de la vida, muy feliz con mi pobreza
I am on the path of life, very happy with my poverty
Como no tengo dinero, tengo mucho corazón
Since I don't have money, I have a lot of heart
Descendiente de Cuauhtémoc
Descendant of Cuauhtémoc
Mexicano por fortuna
Mexican by fortune
Desdichado en los amores, soy borracho y trovador
Unfortunate in love, I am a drunkard and troubadour
Pero cuántos millonarios quisieran vivir mi vida
But how many millionaires would want to live my life
Para cantarle a la pobreza sin sentir ningún dolor
To sing about poverty without feeling any pain
Es por eso que es mi orgullo ser del barrio más humilde
That's why I am proud to be from the humblest neighborhood
Alejado del bullicio de la falsa sociedad
Away from the hustle and bustle of false society
Yo compongo mis canciones para
I compose my songs for the people to sing them to me
Que el pueblo me las cante
And the day the people fail me, that day I will cry
Y el día que el pueblo me falle, ese día voy a llorar
And the day the people fail me, that day I will cry
