[English]

I no longer feel love

It’s no use to me

If you deny me your kisses

I don’t have your lips

And my soul breaks apart

I always trusted you

Now I feel so alone

You left me stranded

Your act and your absence

And you left with another

With the cats I move

Across all the rooftops

Begging the stars

Asking the moon

To bring you back to my side

And now I’m going out

To drink up the bars

To forget about you

And start living again

And have a damn good time

Damn my luck

Look how foolish I’ve been

I’m drowning in my memories

How I regret

Ever meeting you

I’ve looked for my friends

I had forgotten them

You pulled me away from them

Damn fool

They never let me down

And now I’m going out

To drink up the bars

To forget about you

And start living again

And have a damn good time

Bury me here

Wrapped in beans

Among Aztecs and Mayans

Long live our people!

Long live Mexico, damn it!

...

And now I’m going out

To drink up the bars

To forget about you

And start living again

And have a damn good time

And that’s the end of the story

Alright, my brothers

Bring out all the tequila

We’re going to party

And screw it all!

...

[Spanish]

Ya no siento el amor

No me sirve de nada

Si me niegas tus besos

No tengo tu boca

Y se me parte el alma

Siempre confié en ti

Ahora me siento sólo

Me dejaste tirado

Tu acto y tu ausencia

Y te fuiste con otro

Con los gatos me muevo

Por todos los tejados

Rogando a las estrellas

Pidiendo a la luna

Que vuelvas a mi lado

Y ahora voy a salir

A beberme los bares

Pa' olvidarme de ti

Y volver a vivir

Y pasarlo bien padre

Maldita sea mi suerte

Mira que tonto he sido

Me hundo en mis recuerdos

Como me arrepiento

De haberte conocido

He buscao a los colegas

Los tenía olvidados

Me apartaste de ellos

Maldita pendeja

Jamás me han fallado

Y ahora voy a salir

A beberme los bares

Pa' olvidarme de ti

Y volver a vivir

Y pasarlo bien padre

Que me entierren aquí

Envueltito en frijoles

Entre Aztecas y Mayas

¡Qué viva la raza!

¡Viva México Cabrones!

Y ahora voy a salir

A beberme los bares

Pa' olvidarme de ti

Y volver a vivir

Y pasarlo bien padre

Y se acaba la historia

Órale mis carnales

Saca todo el tequila

Nos vamos de fiesta

Y que chingue a su madre

Key Grammar Structures

• Ya no siento el amor

  ➔ Use of 'ya no' for expressing cessation (no longer).

  ➔ The word 'ya' means 'already' and 'no' negates it, creating 'no longer' or 'not anymore'.

• Si me niegas tus besos

  ➔ Use of conditional 'si' clause with present tense.

  ➔ In Spanish, the 'si' conditional clause takes the present indicative for real situations.

• Y se me parte el alma

  ➔ Reflexive and dative construction 'se me parte'.

  ➔ It expresses an emotional reaction: 'my soul breaks' → 'it breaks my soul'.

• Siempre confié en ti

  ➔ Preterite tense of 'confiar' expressing completed past trust.

  ➔ ‘Confié’ shows an action done and finished, different from imperfect ‘confiaba’.

• Me dejaste tirado

  ➔ ‘Me’ is the direct object pronoun; the action 'dejar tirado' means to abandon someone.

  ➔ 'Voy a salir' means 'I'm going to go out' — a planned near-future action.

• Pa’ olvidarme de ti

  ➔ Contraction 'pa’' for colloquial 'para'; reflexive infinitive.

  ➔ ‘Olvidarme’ combines 'olvidar' with reflexive pronoun 'me', meaning 'to forget myself of you' → 'to forget you'.

  ➔ Use of subjunctive in optative expressions (curse/wish formula).

  ➔ ‘Sea’ is subjunctive of ‘ser’ used to express emotion or curse like 'damn my luck'.

• Que viva la raza
