Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mujeres Solitas by Marco Antonio Solís from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Ella era bonita, él serio y callado
She was pretty, he was serious and quiet.
Mi peor enemiga los ha presentado, ay
My worst enemy has introduced them, alas.
Los ha presentado
He has submitted them
Guardé mi libreta de chistes sin gracia
I kept my joke book without grace
Me fui a aquellos sitios de olor a desgracia, ay
I went to those places of smell of misfortune, alas.
De olor a desgracia
From smell to misfortune
Su imagen que estaba fiel como retrato
His image that was faithful as a portrait
De mí fui borrando con licor barato
From me I was erasing with cheap liquor
Le dije a mi llanto 'Deja que se vaya
I said to my crying 'Let it go'
Que es así la vida, se acierta y se falla' ay
That is how life is, it is right and it fails'
Se acierta y se falla
It is right and wrong
El tiempo le ha dado como resultado
Time has resulted in
Dos caritas sucias y un rostro marcado, ay
Two dirty faces and a marked face, alas.
Por su enamorado
For his lover
Fue su única culpa haberse entregado
It was his only fault to have turned himself in.
A aquel loco enfermo que la ha traicionado, ay
To that sick madman who has betrayed her, woe
Que la ha traicionado
That he has betrayed her
Su imagen que estaba fiel como retrato
His image that was faithful as a portrait
De mí fui borrando con licor barato
From me I was erasing with cheap liquor
Le dije a mi llanto 'Deja que se vaya
I said to my crying 'Let it go'
Que es así la vida, se acierta y se falla'
That life is like that, it is right and it fails'
Desde entonces pienso, 'Mujeres bonitas
Since then I think, 'Pretty women'
Envueltas en celos terminan solitas'
Shrouded in jealousy they end up alone'
Desgraciadamente vivir no se ensaya
Unfortunately living is not rehearsed
Por eso en la vida se acierta y se falla, ay
That is why in life you get it right and you fail, oh
Se acierta y se falla
It is right and wrong
