Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Rey / Ella (Live) by Pepe Aguilar from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Me les voy
I'm leaving them
Que estoy afuera
That I'm outside
Pero el día que yo me muera
But the day I die
Sé que tendrás que llorar
I know you'll have to cry
Dirás que no me quisiste
You'll say you didn't love me
Pero vas a estar muy triste
But you're going to be very sad
Y así te vas a quedar
And that's how you'll stay
No los oigo
I can't hear them
Hago siempre eso
I always do that
Y mi palabra es la ley
And my word is the law
No tengo trono ni reina
I have neither throne nor queen
Ni nadie que me comprenda
Nor anyone who understands me
Pero sigo siendo el rey
But I keep being the king
Gracias, Toño
Thank you, Toño
Una piedra en el camino
A stone on the road
Me enseñó que mi destino
Taught me that my destiny
Era rodar y rodar
Was to roll and roll
Después me dijo un arriero
Then a muleteer told me
Que no hay que llegar primero
That you don't have to arrive first
Pero hay que saber llegar al Hollywood Bowl
But you have to know how to get to the Hollywood Bowl
Con dinero y sin dinero
With money and without money
Y mi palabra es la ley
And my word is the law
No tengo trono ni reina
I have neither throne nor queen
Ni nadie que me comprenda
Nor anyone who understands me
Pero sigo siendo el rey
But I keep being the king
Viva México
Long live Mexico
Me cansé de rogarle
I got tired of begging her
Me cansé de decirle
I got tired of telling her
Que yo sin ella
That without her
De pena muero
I die of sorrow
Ya no quiso escucharme
She no longer wanted to listen to me
Si sus labios se abrieron
If her lips opened
Fue pa' decirme
It was to tell me
Así no le dijo
That's not what she said
Le dijo mucho más feo al güey
She told the guy something much uglier
Pero esto es un show familiar
But this is a family show
I cannot repeat what he said
I cannot repeat what he said
What she said, actually
What she said, actually
Yo sentí que mi vida
I felt that my life
Se perdía en un abismo
Was lost in an abyss
Profundo y negro
Deep and black
Como mi suerte
Like my luck
Quise hallar el olvido
I wanted to find oblivion
Al estilo Jalisco
Jalisco style
Pero aquellos mariachis
But those mariachis
Y aquel tequila
And that tequila
Me hicieron chillar
Made me cry
Me cansé de rogarle
I got tired of begging her
Con el llanto en los ojos
With tears in my eyes
Alcé mi copa
I raised my glass
Y brindé por ella
And I toasted for her
No podía despreciarme
I couldn't despise myself
Era el último brindis
It was the last toast
De un bohemio
Of a bohemian
Los mariachis callaron
The mariachis fell silent
De mi mano, sin fuerza
From my hand, without strength
Cayó mi copa
My glass fell
Sin darme cuenta
Without realizing it
Ella quiso quedarse
She wanted to stay
Cuando vio mi tristeza
When she saw my sadness
Pero ya estaba escrito
But it was already written
Que aquella noche
That that night
Cántenla conmigo, por favor
Sing it with me, please
Que aquella noche
That that night
