Albur de amor [English translation]

Since I believed that I was wrong,

Very sad is my life,

My dear young woman

I played with this 'albur'.

Why do I want a life without honor

If I played badly?

If they kill me by shotgun,

Let them kill me, so what?

I liked this 'albur' of love,

I played it!

As I was poor in my life,

I mortgaged it,

And still I have courage left

as far as I could I bet.

If they kill me by shotgun,

Let them kill me, so what? (bis)
