El amor no se compra...
No puedo creer lo que tu hiciste
Te di todo mi amor pero te fuiste
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
El amor no se compra tampoco se vende
asi es esta historia escucha y aprende
Jose era un indio que vivia en la pobreza
Y Maria una princesa que vivia en la nobleza
Jose queria que Maria fuera su esposa
Pero el destino preparaba ya otra cosa
Todo estaba bien hasta que supieron sus padres
Por que sin dinero en la sociedad nunca vales
A Maria le prohibieron ver mas a Jose
Mas Jose con tristesa hablo con los jefes
Si tu eres pobre y quieres la nobleza
Tendras que hacer algo que meresca recompenza
Si vas a ala guerra y regresas triunfador
Tendras lo que quieras ve y demuestra tu valor
Jose se fue a cumplir su sueño
Del amor de Maria; el era el dueño
No puedo creer lo que tu hiciste
Te di todo mi amor pero te fuiste
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
Los dias se fueron los años pasaron
A Maria con un rico a fuerzas la casaron
Todos se olvidaron del indio Jose
Lo dieron por muerto y ademas era muy pobre
La guerra termino pero Jose jamas llego
Maria sufria por las noches lloraba
Jose era su amor y el hombre que ella amaba
Sin ninguna esperanza se quito Maria la vida
Al siguiente dia Jose regreso
Pero ya era tarde Maria estaba tendida
Llorando de tristeza Jose la levanto
Con el asombro de todos a la selva la llevo
Pidio a los Dioses que la revivieran
Sacrificaran su alma si ellos lo quisieran
Agarro su espada y se saco el corazon
Asi llego el final de esta triste cancion
No puedo creer lo que tu hiciste
Te di todo mi amor pero te fuiste
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
Los aztecas aprendieron una buena leccion
Que a dos enamorados no se les pone condicion
El corazon de Jose derramo mucha sangre
Alimento la tierra que lloraba del hambre
En el lugar que murieron las plantas se secaron
Como lugar sagrado los aztecas lo dejaron
Las montañas se quedaron con el canto de Maria
Los indios lo escuchaban y esto es lo que decia:
El amor no se compra
El amor no se vende
Y algun dia; y algun dia yo estare
Con ese hombre, con ese hombre que yo ame
No puedo creer lo que tu hiciste
Te di todo mi amor pero te fuiste
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
y mas nunca y mas nunca volvera
My shitty English translation:
Love can't be bought...
I can't believe what you did
I gave you all my love but you left
And never again, never again will this happen
Love can't be bought or sold
Thus this story listens and learns
Jose was an Indian who lived in poverty
And Maria was a princess who lived in nobility
Jose wanted Maria to be his wife
But destiny had something else prepared
Everything was fine until their parents found out
Because without money you have no value in society
Maria was forbidden to see Jose
Jose sadly spoke with the leaders
If you're poor and you love a rich girl
You must do something to earn rewards
If you go to war and return triumphant
[Something something] you prove your worth
Jose went to get his dream
Of the love of Maria he was the owner
Chorus
The days went by and the years passed
Maria was married to a rich man
They forgot about the Indian Jose
They said he died and besides he was poor
The war ended but Jose didn't come back
Maria suffered, she cried during the night
Jose was her love and the man that she loved
Without any hope, she took her own life
The following day Jose returned
But he was too late, Maria was hanged
Crying with sadness Jose picked her up
He asked the Gods to revive her
They could take his soul if they wanted to
He took his sword and cut out his heart
That's the end of this sad story
Chorus
The Aztecs learned a good lesson
that two lovers should not be put in this position
Jose's heart bled
Nourishing the earth that cried with hunger
In the place where they died the plants dried themselves
Like the sacred place the Aztecs left
The mountains remain with the song of Maria
The Indians hear it and this is how it goes:
Love cannot be bought
Love cannot be sold
And some day, and some day I will be
With this man, the man I loved
Chorus
I just spent the better part of an hour doing this. I'm putting it on my blog because I'm sorta proud, even though I should be ashamed that I've taken five years of Spanish and this the best I can do.
