Original text with translation
Lila Downs
Soy un pobre venadito que habito en la serranía
Soy un pobre venadito que habito en la serranía
Como no soy tan mansito, no bajo al agua de día
De noche poco a poquito y a tus brazos, vida mía
Ya tengo listo el nopal donde he de cortar la tuna
Ya tengo listo el nopal donde he de cortar la tuna
Como soy hombre formal, no me gusta tener una
Me gusta tener de a dos, por si se me enoja alguna
(Ay, vaya filosofía, mira)
Quisiera ser perla fina de tus lúcidos aretes
Quisiera ser perla fina de tus lúcidos aretes
Pa' besarte la orejita y morderte los cachetes
Quién te manda ser bonita
Si hasta a mí me comprometes
Quisiera ser perla fina de tus lúcidos aretes
Quisiera ser perla fina de tus lúcidos aretes
Pa' besarte la orejita y morderte los cachetes
Quién te manda ser bonita
Si hasta a mí me comprometes
Ya con ésta me despido, pero pronto doy la vuelta
Ya con ésta me despido, pero pronto doy la vuelta
No más que me libre Dios de una niña mosca muerta
De esas que ¡ay mamá, por Dios!, pero salen a la puerta
I am a poor little deer that lives in the mountains
I am a poor little deer that lives in the mountains
Since I'm not that tame, I don't go under the water during the day
At night little by little and in your arms, my life
I already have the nopal ready where I have to cut the prickly pear
I already have the nopal ready where I have to cut the prickly pear
As I am a formal man, I do not like to have a
I like to have two, in case someone gets mad at me
(Oh, go philosophy, look)
I would like to be the fine pearl of your lucid earrings
I would like to be the fine pearl of your lucid earrings
To kiss your little ear and bite your cheeks
who tells you to be pretty
If you even compromise me
I would like to be the fine pearl of your lucid earrings
I would like to be the fine pearl of your lucid earrings
To kiss your little ear and bite your cheeks
who tells you to be pretty
If you even compromise me
With this I say goodbye, but soon I'll turn around
With this I say goodbye, but soon I'll turn around
No more God save me from a dead fly girl
One of those that, oh mom, for God's sake!, but they come to the door
