Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Los Pilares De La Carcel by Valentín Elizalde from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Preso me llevan mi querida va llorando me llevan
Prisoner they take me my dear goes crying they take me
Preso por las calles de laredo y
Prisoner through the streets of Laredo and
Cuando viste que ala cárcel me metieron te devolviste
When you saw that they put me in jail, you returned
A gozar de un nuevo amor
To enjoy a new love
Al cabo no e de ser los pilares de la cárcel
After all, it is not to be the pillars of the prison
Al cabo no e de ser los candados de las puertas
After all, it should not be the locks on the doors
Lo que te encargo es que siempre vivas alerta
What I entrust to you is that you always live alert
Porque algún día me darán la libertad
Because someday they will give me freedom
Cuanto presumes por andar en tus terrenos
How much do you presume to walk on your land
Cuanto presumes porque me ves abatido
How much do you brag because you see me down
Sera por lo mucho que yo te pido
It will be because of how much I ask you
Calmantes montez deja mi suerte correr
painkillers montez let my luck run
Al cabo no e de ser los pilares de la cárcel
After all, it is not to be the pillars of the prison
Al cabo no e de ser los candados de las puertas
After all, it should not be the locks on the doors
Lo que te encargo es que siempre vivas alerta porque algún
What I entrust to you is that you always live alert because some
Día me darán la libertad
day they will give me freedom
