José Alfredo Jiménez "Ella" lyrics

Translation to:deen

Ella

Me cansé de rogarle,me cansé de decirleque yo sin ellade pena mueroYa no quiso escucharmesi sus labios se abrieronfué pa' decirmeya no te quiero.

Yo sentí que mi vidase perdía en un abismoprofundo y negrocomo mi suertequise hallar el olvidoal estilo Jaliscopero aquellos mariachisy aquel tequilame hicieron llorar.

Me cansé de rogarlecon el llanto en los ojosalcé mi copay brindépor ellano podía despreciarme,era el ùltimo brindisde un bohemiopor una reina.

Los mariachis callaronde mi mano, sin fuerza,cayó mi copasin darme cuenta...ella quizo quedarsecuando vió mi tristeza.pero ya estaba escritoque aquella nocheperdiera su amor.

I grew tired of begging her

I grew tired of begging herI grew tired of telling herthat without her, Iwould die of a broken heartShe didn't want to listento me anymoreif her lips opened it wasonly to sayI no longer love you

I felt my lifeslipping away into an abyssdeep and blackjust like my luckI wanted to find oblivionJalisco stylebut that mariachi [band]and that tequilamade me weep

I grew tired of begging herwith tears in my eyesI raised my glassand dranktohershe couldn't scorn meit was the last toastfrom a romantic drunk man in miseryto a queen

The mariachis became silentfrom my weakened handfell my glasswithout me noticing itshe wanted to staywhen she saw my sadnessbut it was already writtenthat on that nightI would lose her love
