En la barra de vieja cantina
Ay un hombre tomando licor
Me pregunto si tiene una pena
O una disilusion con su amor
Le pregunto la copa se enpina
Y contesta aquel triste señor

“Se piensa casar
Que sea feliz
Deveras que sea dichosa
Se casa con el
Destino tan cruel
Es mi amor
Sera su esposa”

Y en la barra de veija cantina
Ay un hombre moriendo de amor

En la torre de blanca capilla
Las campanas un dia anunciaran
La alegria de un boda de pueblo
Las campanas una dia doblaran
Cuando acabe aquel pobre diablo
Con su pena se que doblara

Se piensa casar
Que sea feliz
Deveras que sea dichosa
Se casa con el
Destino tan cruel
Es mi amor
Sera su esposa

Y en la barra de veija cantina
Ay un hombre moriendo de amor”

Translated Version

In the old canteen bar
Oh a man drinking liquor
I wonder if he has a pity.
Or a dissilusion with his love
I ask him the glass is enpined
And answer that sad lord

"He plans to marry
Make him happy
You must be blissful.
She marries the
Fate so cruel
It's my love
She'll be his wife."

And in the canteen bar
Oh a man dying of love

In the tower of white chapel
The bells will one day announce
The joy of a village wedding
The bells will one day bend
When that poor devil is over
With his grief he would bend

It's intended to get married
Make him happy
You must be blissful.
She marries the
Fate so cruel
It's my love
She'll be his wife.

And in the canteen bar
Oh a man dying of love"
