Frente a una copa de vino [English translation]

In front of a glass of wine

I'm laughing at myself.

I feel such great sorrow,

That I just have to laugh!

Upon knowing that you had left me,

Don't you think that I cried:

I have downed a few glasses

And I've looked in the mirror.

And I have told myself...

And I have told myself...

With these looks and being penniless,

Who's ever going to want me...?

In front of a glass of wine

I'm laughing at myself.

I feel such great sorrow,

That I just have to laugh!

I still remember that night

When I asked you to go out.

I told you: 'I have a car,

Which I've bought just for you'.

When she saw I didn't have a car...

When she saw I didn't have a car...

She dumped me so unceremoniously

That I'm still laughing about it...!

In front of a glass of wine

I'm laughing at myself.

I feel such great sorrow,

That I just have to laugh!

This isn't a madman's laughter;

I just do it to conceal (the truth).

If there are tears in my eyes,

It's out of laughing so much and nothing more...

I don't need your love...

I don't need your love...

But, if one of these days you came back,

I'd be so very happy...!
