El abandonado [English translation]

Woman, you abandoned me because I was too poor

and for having the misfortune of being married;

what am I to do if I am the one being abandoned,

abandoned, for God's sake.

If I get drunk it's because I like to drink,

if I drink wine, I don't ask anyone for money;

what am I to do if I am the one being abandoned,

abandoned, for God's sake.

I have three vices and they're very rooted:

being a drunk, a player and in love,

what am I to do if I am the one being abandoned,

abandoned, for God's sake.
