Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Cama de Piedra by Miguel Aceves Mejía from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
De piedra ha de ser la cama
Stone must be the bed
De piedra la cabecera
Stone the headboard
La mujer que a mi me quiera
The woman who loves me
Me ha de querer de a de veras
He must really love me
Ay, ay, corazón por qué no amas
Oh, oh, sweetheart why you don't love
Subí a la sala del crimen
I went up to the crime room
Le pregunté al presidente
I asked the president
Que si es delito el quererte
That if it's a crime to love you
Que me sentencien a muerte
To be sentenced to death
Ay, ay corazón por qué no amas
Oh, oh my heart why you don't love
El día en que a mi me maten
The day I get killed
Que sea de cinco balazos
Make it five bullets
Y estar cerquita de ti
And be sure of you
Para morir en tus brazos
To die in your arms
Ay, ay corazón por qué no amas
Oh, oh my heart why you don't love
Por caja quiero un sarape
By box I want a sarape
Por cruz mis dobles cananas
By cross my double cananas
Y escriban sobre mi tumba
And write about my grave
Mi último adiós con mil balas
My last goodbye with a thousand bullets
Ay, ay, corazón por qué no amas
Oh, oh, sweetheart why you don't love
