Apenas diecisiete años y un duro pasado
Just seventeen years old and a tough past
La pasta, el paragua y la calle le habían visitado
Money, the umbrella, and the street had come to visit her
Pero ella decide salir a buscarse la vida
But she decides to go out and make a life for herself
A los veinticuatro, maleta en la mano, se iba
At twenty-four, suitcase in hand, she was leaving
La vida al fin le iba a cambiar
Life was finally going to change for her
Nuevo país, a trabajar
New country, off to work
Y le juró a su madre una casa le iba a comprar
And she promised her mother she would buy a house
Volveré
I will return
Te juro que volveré
I swear I will return
Volveré
I will return
Te voy a venir a buscar
I'm coming to get you
Vo-vo-vo-volveré
Vo-vo-vo-I'm coming back
Te juro que volveré
I swear I'll return
Volveré
I'll return
A su madre le prometió volver
He promised his mother he'd come back
Después de ocho años viviendo en la ilegalidad
After eight years of living in illegality
Le dieron su primer gran cheque por verla cantar
They gave her her first big check for seeing her sing
Todos los días le chingó
Every day she got messed with
Ella a la vida le ganó
But she won over life
Pero su ma se fue al cielo antes de verla triunfar
But her mom went to heaven before seeing her succeed
Volveré
I will return
Te juro que volveré
I swear to you that I will return
Volveré
I will return
Te voy a venir a buscar
I'm going to come for you
Vo-vo-vo-volveré
I-I-I-I will return
Te juro que volveré
I swear to you that I will return
Volveré
I will return
A su madre le prometió volver
He promised his mother to return
No sé si volveré
I don't know if I will return
No sé si volveré
I don't know if I will return
No sé si volveré
I don't know if I'll return
No sé si volveré
I don't know if I'll return
No sé si volveré
I don't know if I'll return
No sé si volveré
I don't know if I'll return
