Amor de Madre part. 2 Aventura (English Translation) Lyrics

I’m alone here in my sad cell, remembering
Serving a sentence because I killed a man
Always thinking of my mother who fought for me her whole life
The advice she gave me never entered my head
I hope she can hear me from heaven and forgive me
I was a man who had everything, but never had a father
There were things I wanted to tell him, but I didn’t dare, I had to keep quiet
Months went by in my cell, one day a man arrived
He had very white hair and blue eyes just like me
He says he’s been in this damn prison for 24 years
And although he carries a great sorrow and pain in his chest
It was an afternoon in January and my cellmate approached me
He asked if we could talk and sat beside me
He said tell me about your life, things that are inside you
I said I had a good mother, but I never knew my father
And for hanging out with bad company I lost my poor mother
This man told me that a long time ago he had a woman
Whom he loved with all his soul, carrying a child of his in her womb
I went out one afternoon to look for work because I had nothing to eat
But everywhere I went, I had no luck, I didn’t know what to do
He ran into an old friend who convinced him to rob
And in the midst of the robbery everything went wrong, and he had to kill an innocent man
For 24 years he has been paying for his mistake
Always thinking of his beloved and his little son who he never met
I asked about his beloved, what was her name, and he replied
He told me her full name and a cold sweat ran down my back
That woman was my mother, and in front of me was my father

This is a story that could happen to anyone
A life story that happened to me
I didn’t have a father, but I had a mother who fought for me her whole life
Anyone who has a mother who always cares for her, should know how to appreciate her
Because the day they no longer have her, they will miss her a lot but it will be too late
