Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Estas Equivocado by Roberto Roena from Spanish to English.
Pa' que creas el Dios
So that you believe in God
Si tú habías pensado por un minuto
If you had thought for a minute
Que el sabor de este negrito, se había terminado
that the flavor of this black guy was over
Estás equivocado, óyelo, estás equivocado
you're mistaken, hear it, you're mistaken
Pero que estás equivocado, estás equivocado
but you're mistaken, you're mistaken
Le pueden llamar candela
They can call him fire
Siempre camina encendido
He always walks lit
Luego y le da un fuego en su cantillo
Then he sets his corner on fire
Dice que ya a mí, me queman
He says that they already burn me
Si tú habías pensado por un segundo
If you had thought for a second
Que él no estaba en el asunto y lo habían tumba'o
that he wasn't in the game and had been knocked down
Estás equivocado, óyelo, estás equivocado
you're mistaken, hear it, you're mistaken
Ay, pero que estás equivocado, sigues equivocado
Oh, but you're mistaken, you're still mistaken
Y si tú me preguntas, ¿qué pasó?
And if you ask me, what happened?
Estaba preparando mi sabor
I was preparing my flavor
Si me preguntas dónde yo estaba
If you ask me where I was
Buscando balas pa' este cañón
Looking for bullets for this cannon
Y si tú me preguntas, ¿qué pasó?
And if you ask me, what happened?
Estaba preparando mi sabor
I was preparing my flavor
Que Roberto se había muerto
that Roberto had died
Que Roena ya no suena
that Roena doesn't sound anymore
Mi hermano, se equivocó
Brother, you were wrong
Y si tú me preguntas, ¿qué pasó?
And if you ask me, what happened?
Estaba preparando mi sabor
I was preparing my flavor
Y ahora, digo presente
And now, I say present
Quiero cantarle a mi gente, mi inspiración
I want to sing to my people, my inspiration
Y si tú me preguntas, ¿qué pasó?
And if you ask me, what happened?
Estaba preparando mi sabor
I was preparing my flavor
Si me preguntas yo te contesto
If you ask me I answer you
Llegó el Apolo de Roberto, óyelo
Roberto's Apollo arrived, hear it
Y estabas brr, temblando, nene
And you were brr, trembling, babe
Porque hasta el Apolo te impresionó
because even the Apollo impressed you
Ya que preguntabas dónde estaba yo, óyelo
Since you were asking where I was, hear it
Oigan, yo estaba buscando la música
Listen, I was looking for the music
La gente que es la que es la que idala de puro corazón
the people that are the real deal from a pure heart
Por eso llego Tito, Humbertito, y Ramón
That's why Tito, Humbertito, and Ramón showed up
Bueno, también busqué un estudio y ahí estaba Pericles
Well, I also looked for a studio and Pericles was there
Llegó Carlitos, ay qué chévere esta reunión
Carlitos arrived, oh how cool this gathering
Ya que preguntabas dónde estaba yo, óyelo
Since you were asking where I was, hear it
Ay, que poner trabas pa' que no se note
Oh, they put obstacles so that it's not noticed
Pero tú ve, pero tú ve, gracias a Dios esto se forjó
But you see, but you see, thank God this was forged
Ya que preguntabas
Since you were asking
Gracias ti, por el apoyo y por creer en mí, gracias a la vieja mía
Thank you for the support and for believing in me, thanks to my mom
Gracias a pollito, gracias a toda la gente que ha compartido conmigo
Thanks to Pollito, thanks to all the people that have shared with me
Y a los que no también, me han dado fuerza para esto
And to the ones who haven't too, they've given me strength for this
Los quiero de corazón
I love you from my heart
