Mi Pueblo
Juan Gabriel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

El mismo día que me quede sin ti
Me fui de viaje para no sufrir
Y al llegar al pueblo en que nací
Tan solo al verlo me sentí feliz.

Toda la gente comenzó a bailar
Cuando al llegar yo comencé a cantar
Al mismo ritmo del sol al girar
Bailo la tierra, la luna y la mar

Ay que alegría (oh what a feeling)
La que sentía (my heart is singing)
Pues a mi pueblo (that happy faces)
Feliz veia (on the memories)

And so the music goes on and on
Into the night of till break of dawn
Y todo el pueblo en una sola voz
I hear the music everywhere

Que dice así ay aya ay ay aya aya ya ya ya ya
Ay ay ay ay ay aya ay ay aya ya ya

Ay que alegría (feliz reían)
La que sentían (oh what a feeling)
Pues a mi pueblo (todos contentos)
Feliz veía

And so the music keep goes on and on
Se acerca el año en mayo twenty-two
All through the night untill the break of dawn
La gente canta al verme esta canción

Que dice así ay aya ay ay aya aya ya ya ya ya
Ay ay ay ay ay aya ay ay aya ya ya

Ay que alegría (feliz reían)
La que sentían (oh what a feeling)
Pues a mi pueblo (todos contentos)
Feliz veía

Ayayayayyaa, oh what a feeling
Ayayayayyaa, oh what a feeling
Ayayayayyaa, oh what a feeling
Ayayayayyaa, lara la la la




Que viva mi pueblo y
El pueblo de todos
