Amarga Desventura

Beloved mother
I come staggering
And don't be surprised that I am drunk
It's not my habit
But today I felt the desire
To get drunk like macho men do

But I didn't do it out of machismo actually
It was with the purpose
To see if I can erase from my mind
The woman who mercilessly destroys me
Without realizing she's slowly killing me

Mother, my life is hanging by a weak thread
It could snap at any moment
Mother, my life is hanging by a weak thread
It could snap at any moment

I find myself sad in this grave situation
Only because of that indifferent woman
Who unjustly tortures my heart
With one phrase she could change my fate

Today I asked her to have mercy on me
Because my life is worthless without her love
But she told me if I wanted to die
To go ahead and die, that she didn't care
But she told me if I wanted to die
To go ahead and die, that she didn't care

I'm crying, but not out of cowardice
And I want you to cradle me on your chest
Just like you did when I was a child
Because truth is, I feel completely shattered

Only you can end this bitterness
Because I don't think I can bear this sorrow
And now more than ever I need your tenderness
Because alcohol only makes me remember her

What a sad ending with this bitter misfortune
To have to settle for just looking at her
What a sad ending with this bitter misfortune
To have to settle for just looking at her

Today I asked her to have mercy on me
Because my life is worthless without her love
But she told me if I wanted to die
To go ahead and die, that she didn't care

But I love her and even if she wishes me death
I ask God to bless her abundantly
To see her happy is my noblest intention
I can only resign myself to my fate
To see her happy is my noblest intention
I can only resign myself to my fate
