Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Columpio by Los Rieleros Del Norte from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Cuantas veces te dije llorando, no juegues conmigo
How many times did I tell you crying, don't play with me
Ni me eches mentiras
Don't even tell me lies
Porque vas a quedarte en la calle
Because you are going to stay on the street
Tirada y perdida vendiendo tu vida
Thrown and lost selling your life
Yo te dije piensa en lo que dices no ves que la vida
I told you, think about what you say, don't you see that life
Es como un columpio, cuando sube se siente bonito
It's like a swing, when it goes up it feels nice
Pero cuando baja eso duele mucho
But when it goes down that hurts a lot
Ya lo ves, hoy te encuentras perdida
You see, today you are lost
Vendiendo tu vida, y yo muy contento
Selling your life, and I'm very happy
Quiera Dios, que tu cuerpo se seque
May God, may your body dry up
Y que de repente se lo lleve el viento
And suddenly the wind takes it away
No es que te tenga yo odio contigo
It's not that I hate you
Ni quiera desearte ya tu mala suerte
I don't even want to wish you bad luck anymore
Pero si viviría agradecido si en estos
But I would live grateful if in these
Momentos me lleva la muerte
Moments death takes me
Ya lo ves, hoy te encuentras perdida
You see, today you are lost
Vendiendo tu vida, y yo muy contento
Selling your life, and I'm very happy
Quiera Dios, que tu cuerpo se seque
May God, may your body dry up
Y que de repente se lo lleve el viento
And suddenly the wind takes it away
