Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pero La Recuerdo (Cumbia Santa María) by Pancho Barraza from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Suavecito, suavecito, suavecito, suavecito
Soft, soft, soft, soft
Con el sabor de Santa Maria mariachi
With the taste of Santa Maria mariachi
'ESTA ME SALIO PEOR QUE LA OTRA COMPADRE
'THIS ONE CAME OUT WORSE THAN THE OTHER COMPADRE
ELEGANTE, PRECIOSA, DESPANPANANTE
ELEGANT, BEAUTIFUL, DESPANING
PERO MUY INTERESADA,'
BUT VERY INTERESTED,'
Si llore, cuando la vi que se marchaba
If she cries, when I saw her leaving
No hubo poder, que su decision cambiara
There was no power, that his decision would change
Ahogue mi amor, en un mar lleno de lagrimas
Drown my love, in a sea full of tears
Y naufrago, una pasion que terminaba
And shipwreck, a passion that ended
No le hago al martir ni quiero llorarla
I don't make the martyr and I don't want to mourn her
Pero la recuerdo
But I remember her
Cuando se fue me faltaba hasta el aire
When he left I was missing to the air
Pero mas sus besos
But more his kisses
La sigo amando
I still love her
Y me duele saberlo
And it hurts me to know
Por eso voy
That's why I'm going
A besar otros labios mientras lloro por dentro
To kiss other lips as I cry inside
Sufre la pena pero lo hace en silencio
He suffers from grief but does so in silence
Porque cobro
Because I charge
El amor que me daba cada caricia y beso
The love that gave me every caress and kiss
'CHIQUITITA PREFIERO PERDERTE, QUE MANTENERTE'
'LITTLE GIRL WOULD RATHER LOSE YOU THAN KEEP YOU'
'CON EL SABOR, SANTA MARIA, MARIACHI, mira
'WITH THE TASTE, SANTA MARIA, MARIACHI, look
Ahogue mi amor, en un mar lleno de lagrimas
Drown my love, in a sea full of tears
Y naufrago, una pasion que terminaba
And shipwreck, a passion that ended
No le hago al martir ni quiero llorarla
I don't make the martyr and I don't want to mourn her
Pero la recuerdo
But I remember her
Cuando se fue me faltaba hasta el aire
When he left I was missing to the air
Pero mas sus besos
But more his kisses
La sigo amando
I still love her
Y me duele saberlo
And it hurts me to know
Por eso voy
That's why I'm going
A besar otros labios mientras lloro por dentro
To kiss other lips as I cry inside
Sufre la pena pero lo hace en silencio
He suffers from grief but does so in silence
Porque cobro
Because I charge
El amor que me daba cada caricia y beso
The love that gave me every caress and kiss
Adios, Santa Maria
Goodbye, Santa Maria
