Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Adiós de la Vida by Pepe Aguilar from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
El día que me muera
The Day I Die
Que sea con mariachi mi adiós a la vida
May it be with mariachi my goodbye to life
En vez de rezarme
Instead of praying to me
Me cantan canciones como despedida
They sing songs to me as a farewell
Que sea mi velorio
Let it be my wake
Con música alegre y con muchas botellas
With cheerful music and many bottles
Para que mis cuates
So that my cuates
Brinden por el muerto, lo mismo por ellas
Toast to the dead, the same to them
Yo quisiera tener una muerte tranquila
I wish I had a quiet death
Bajo el sol de mi patria, que no es orgulloso
Under the sun of my homeland, which is not proud
Yo me quiero morir, que me traigan tequila
I want to die, let them bring me tequila
Que entre vino y mujeres me siento dichoso
That between wine and women I feel happy
El día que me muera
The Day I Die
Yo quiero un petate al estilo ranchero
I want a rancher-style mat
Vestido de charro
Charro dress
Me tapan la cara con este sombrero
They cover my face with this hat
Están invitadas
They are invited
Las flores que nunca me fueron sinceras
The flowers that were never sincere to me
A ver si en mi entierro
Let's see if at my funeral
Les causa vergüenza, ser tan traicioneras
It causes them shame, to be so treacherous
Yo quisiera tener una muerte tranquila
I wish I had a quiet death
Bajo el sol de mi patria, que no es orgulloso
Under the sun of my homeland, which is not proud
Yo me quiero morir que me traigan tequila
I want to die to be brought tequila
Que entre vino y mujeres me siento dichoso
That between wine and women I feel happy
