Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ay Te Dejo En San Antonio by Los Lobos from Spanish to English.
Ya no quiereo que me beses ni besarte
I no longer want you to kiss me or to kiss you
Ni mirarte ni siquera oir tu voz
Nor to look at you or even hear your voice
Por que supe que tenias otro amante
Because I found out you had another lover
Y en Laredo ya tenias otros dos
And in Laredo, you already had two more
Te gusta mucho el baile
You really like dancing
Y bailas al compas
And you dance to the beat
Te vas hasta Laredo
You go all the way to Laredo
Y quieres mas y mas
And you want more and more
Soy ranchero jugador y navegante
I am a rancher, a gambler, and a sailor
Ya me voy para nunca mas volver
I'm leaving to never return
Me dejastes sin dinero y sin rolante
You left me without money and without a ride
Por el mundo te me echastes a correr
You ran away from me into the world
Te gusta mucho el baile
You really like dancing
Y bailas al compas
And you dance to the beat
Te vas hasta Laredo
You go all the way to Laredo
Y quieres mas y mas
And you want more and more
Ya me voy a te dejo en San Antonio
I'm leaving now, I leave you in San Antonio
Tu manita no te la puedo quitar
I can't take your little hand away
Momento que pareces el demonio
You look like a demon at times
Cuando mueves la cintura para bailar
When you move your waist to dance
Te gusta mucho el baile
You really like dancing
Y bailas al compas
And you dance to the beat
Te vas hasta Laredo
You go all the way to Laredo
Y quieres mas y mas
And you want more and more
