I felt my soul exploding into a thousand pieces
I opened my arms to be able to hug him
I saw him so beautiful playing in my lap
I felt the crying was starting to betray me
Behind bars he was looking at me with affection
Now he wasn't a child, he was a total criminal

I lost life entangled in business
My partners were insanity and ambition
I didn't have time to play with him a little
Or cultivate his heart with love
They educated him through the streets
Little by little
They gave him prison's diploma

How I wish to return him to 15 years
And that I could tear down his cell
How it hurts me to see my blood a prisoner
Like a beast walking through the penal
I feel in my soul the reproach of his mother
He isn't guilty and I am the criminal

Where my child stays
When he asked me for affection
I didn't open my heart
I never took him to school
Lulled him to sleep in my arms
Nor gave him a hug on his graduation day
I made money my God and to the son
That I love so much I made him a prison beast
What good is money, if I end up giving it away
Begging compassion for my son

How I wish to return him to 15 years
And that I could tear down his cell
How it hurts me to see my blood a prisoner
Like a beast walking through the penal
I feel in my soul the reproach of his mother
He isn't guilty and I'm the criminal

Sentí que el alma me explotaba en mil pedazos
Abrí los brazos para poderlo abrazar
Lo vi tan lindo jugueteando en mi regazo
Sentí que el llanto me empezaba a traicionar
Tras de las rejas me miraba con cariño
Ya no era un niño, era todo un criminal

Perdí la vida enredado en los negocios
Fueron mis socios la locura y la ambición
No tuve tiempo de jugar con el un poco
Ni cultivarle con amor su corazón
Me lo educaron por las calles
Poco a poco
Me lo entregaron con diploma de prisión

Como quisiera regresarlo quince años
Y que su celda le pudiera derrumbar
Como me duele ver mi sangre prisionera
Como una fiera caminar por el penal
Siento en el alma los reproches de su madre
El no es culpable y yo soy el criminal

Donde a quedado mi niño
Cuando me pidió cariño
No le abrí mi corazón
Nunca lo llevé a la escuela
Poco lo arrulle en mis brazos
Tampoco le di el abrazo el día de su graduación
Hice mi dios del dinero y al hijo
Que tanto quiero lo hice fiera de prisión
De que me sirvió el dinero, si termine limosnero
Mendigando por mi hijo compasión

Como quisiera regresarlo quince años
Y que su celda le pudiera derrumbar
Como me duele ver mi sangre prisionera
Como una fiera caminar por el penal
Siento en el alma los reproches de su madre
El no es culpable y yo soy el criminal
