La camisa negra [English translation]

I'm wearing a black shirt.

Today, my love is mourning.

Today I have a sorrow in my soul

all because of your spell.

Today I know that you don't love me anymore,

and that's what hurts me the most,

I'm wearing a black shirt

and a painful sorrow.

Sadly 1, it seems that I'm left alone,

all because you lied.

How terrible luck I had

that day I met you.

By drinking the evil poison of your love,

I was left half dead and filled with pain.

I inhaled the bitter smoke of your goodbyes,

and since you left, I only...

I'm wearing a black shirt,

because my soul has darkened.

I lost my sanity because of you,

and I almost lose my bed.

Com-a, com-a, come on, baby 2.

I'm telling you on the sly

that I'm wearing a black shirt

and, below, I have a corpse3.

I'm wearing a black shirt.

I don't care about your love anymore.

The things that used to taste like glory,

today tastes like...

Wednesday4 afternoon: you don't show up,

I can't find a clue of where're you,

and I'm wearing a black shirt

while I see your bags by the door.

It seems that I'm left alone,

all because you lied.

How terrible luck I had

that day I met you.

By drinking the evil poison of your love,

I was left half dead and filled with pain.

I inhaled the bitter smoke of your goodbyes,

and since you left, I only...

I'm wearing a black shirt,

because my soul has darkened.

I lost my sanity because of you,

and I almost lose my bed.

Com-a, com-a, com-e on, baby.

I'm telling you on the sly

that I'm wearing a black shirt

and, below, I have a corpse.

I'm wearing a black shirt,

because my soul has darkened.

I lost my sanity because of you,

and I almost lose my bed.

Com-a, com-a, com-e on, baby.

I'm telling you on the sly

that I'm wearing a black shirt

and, below, I have a corpse.

1. Wordplay: the first part of "mal parece", sounds like he's about to sing "malparida", translated as "bitch", but it's quickly fixed to say "Sadly, it seems...".2. Wordplay: "cama" means bed, and it sounds similar to "come on".3. Wordplay: "difunto" literally means "deceased", but it's often used in a dirty pickup line that says something like: "Here I have a corpse, to bury it wherever you want", so the corpse can refer to his penis. In concerts, he often says this pickup line between these two stanzas, so it isn't a stretch.4. Wordplay: the first part of "miércoles" sounds a lot like "mierda", which means "shit". So, the previous verse can be completed as "tastes like shit", but is quickly fixed into "Wednesday".
