Flores y Tamales [English translation]

Since I left you saved1 your love

Walking in the park sad and alone until ten o'clock

The most bitter drink left you without consolation

lost and crying on this side of the desert.

I thought the dream existed that one day

we'll have that little house together, my life

Refrain/chorus:

And that we would wake up together with flowers and tamales2

Celebrating with your laughs every moment, every dance

And that we would wake up together with flowers and tamales

Celebrating with your laughs every moment, every dance

But this tale ended with the land I was waiting for

between the bushes staining my face

Refrain:

And that we would wake up together with flowers and tamales

Celebrating with your laughs every moment, every dance

And that we would wake up together with flowers and tamales

Celebrating with your laughs every moment, every dance

My body facing up, I looked towards the sun

believing that your eyes were calling me with pain

Refrain:

And that we would wake up together with flowers and tamales

Celebrating with your laughs every moment, every dance

And that we would wake up together with flowers and tamales

Celebrating with your laughs every moment, every dance
