Canción del mariachi ( The mariachi's song )

Soy un hombre muy honrado ( I'm a very honorable man )
Que me gusta lo mejor ( And I like the best things )
Las mujeres no me faltan ( I don't lack women )
Ni el dinero, ni el amor ( Nor money, nor love )
Jineteando en mi caballo ( Riding on my horse )
Por la sierra yo me voy ( through the sierra (mountains) I go )
Las estrellas y la luna, ( The stars and the moon, )
Ellas me dicen donde voy ( They tell me where I am going )

Ay, ay, ay, ay ( Ay, ay, ay, ay )
Ay, ay mi amor ( Ay, ay my love )
Ay mi morena ( Ay my brown skinned girl )
De mi corazón ( Of my heart )

Me gusta tocar guitarra ( I like to play guitar )
Me gusta cantar el son ( I like to sing songs )
Mariachi me acompaña ( Mariachi accompanies me )
Cuando canto mi canción ( When I sing my song )

Me gusta tomar mis copas ( I like to drink my drinks )
Aguardiente es lo mejor ( Aguardiente (brandy) is the best )
También el tequila blanco ( And also white tequila )
Con su sal le da sabor ( With its salt, gives it flavor )

Ay, ay, ay, ay ( Ay, ay, ay, ay )
Ay, ay mi amor ( Ay, ay my love )
Ay mi morena ( Ay my brown skinned girl )
De mi corazón ( Of my heart )

Me gusta tocar guitarra ( I like to play guitar )
Me gusta cantar el son ( I like to sing songs )
Mariachi me acompaña ( Mariachi accompanies me )
Cuando canto mi canción ( When I sing my song )

Me gusta tomar mis copas ( I like to drink my drinks )
Aguardiente es lo mejor ( Aguardiente (brandy) is the best )
También el tequila blanco ( And also white tequila )
Con su sal le da sabor ( With its salt, gives it flavor )

Ay, ay, ay, ay ( Ay, ay, ay, ay )
Ay, ay mi amor ( Ay, ay my love )
Ay mi morena ( Ay my brown skinned girl )
De mi corazón ( Of my heart )

Ay, ay, ay, ay ( Ay, ay, ay, ay )
Ay, ay mi amor ( Ay, ay my love )
Ay mi morena ( Ay my brown skinned girl )
