Mis hijos preguntaron

Ni modo de decirles
There's no way to tell them
Que tú me traicionabas
That you betrayed me
Así que una tragedia les tuve que inventar
So I had to invent a tragedy for them
Que crees que hice
What do you think I did
Les dije que moriste
I told them you died
Y los llevé al panteón
And I took them to the cemetery
Y en una tumba falsa
And in a fake grave
Donde grabé tu nombre
Where I engraved your name
Aún le llevan flores a la que los dejó

Y en esa tumba falsa
And in that fake grave
Quedaron enterrados
Were buried
Toditos los recuerdos
All the memories
De tu maldito amor
Of your d*mn love
Ahora que volviste
Now that you came back
¿Qué quieres que les diga?
What do you want me to tell them?
Ni modo que reviva a la que se murió
There's no way I can revive the one who died
El más pequeño

Ayer besó tu foto
Yesterday kissed your photo
Y preguntó por ti
And asked about you
Miré que la besaba y
I saw him kissing it and
Me llene de celos
I got filled with jealousy
Pues tú no te mereces que te quieran así
Because you don't deserve to be loved like that
Y en esa tumba falsa
And in that fake grave
Quedaron enterrados
Were buried
Toditos los recuerdos

De tu maldito amor

Did you like this lyrics translation?
tumba falsa — fake grave
Tumba falsa translates directly to "fake grave." It's a striking and unusual phrase that immediately grabs attention because of its dramatic and somewhat morbid imagery.
In the song, the narrator invents a story that the children's mother died and even creates a "fake grave" for her to explain her absence after she abandoned the family. This phrase is central to the song's dark and compelling narrative, making it highly memorable and unique.
