Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Golondrina Viajera by Los Rieleros Del Norte from Spanish to English.
Como las golondrinas
Like the swallows
Que se van en diciembre
That leave in December
Cruel día sin pensarlo
Cruel day without thinking
Mi esposa se marcho
My wife left
Sin importarle nada
Without caring about anything
Dejándome a sus hijos
Leaving me with her children
Y como una cualquiera
And like any other woman
Con otro se fugo
She ran away with someone else
Le envío como regalo
She sent me as a gift
Un abrazo y un beso
A hug and a kiss
Si acaso no regreso
In case she doesn't come back
Que nos bendiga dios
May God bless us
Y me dejo una carta
And she left me a letter
Dándome explicaciones
Giving me explanations
No lo hice por dinero
I didn't do it for money
Tan solo por amor
Just for love
Que no te da vergüenza
Aren't you ashamed
De lo que no hiciste
Of what you didn't do
Si a ellos no querías
If you didn't love them
Que me esperaba yo
What did you expect from me?
Prosigue tu camino
Continue your journey
Golondrina viajera
Traveling swallow
Buscando quien te quiera
Looking for someone who loves you
Que te perdone dios
May God forgive you
El tiempo fue pasando
Time passed
Volvió la primavera
Spring came back
También junto con ella
And along with it
Mi esposa regreso
My wife returned
Traía el alma en la mano
She carried her soul in her hand
Y el corazón herido
And a wounded heart
Con el llanto en los ojos
With tears in her eyes
Sus hijos reclamo
She claimed her children
Que no te da vergüenza
Aren't you ashamed
De lo que no hiciste
Of what you didn't do
Si a ellos no querías
If you didn't love them
Que me esperaba yo
What did you expect from me?
Prosigue tu camino
Continue your journey
Golondrina viajera
Traveling swallow
Buscando quien te quiera
Looking for someone who loves you
Que te perdone dios
May God forgive you
