Juan Gabriel, (born Alberto Aguilera Valadez) on 7 January 1950 is a Mexican[1] singer and songwriter who is one of the most famous living representatives of the Mexican ranchera, ballad, mariachi, and pop music. Born in Parácuaro, Michoacán, he attended boarding school in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua[3], but he left to work as a craftsman at the age of 13. Already a songwriter, he began his performing career in nightclubs and local television using the stage name Adán Luna. A lot of his musical skills were also learned from an older man that befriended Alberto at an early age. He perfected playing the guitar and eventually changed his name to Juan Gabriel to honor his friend and his father, dropping Adan Luna completely.

Voy por la calle de la mano platicando con mi amor
y voy recordando cosas serias que me pueden suceder
pues ella me pregunta que hasta cuando nos iremos a casar,
y yo le contesto que soy pobre, que me tiene que esperar.
(coro)
No tengo dinero ni nada que dar.
Lo nico que tengo es amor para amar.
Si as t me quieres, te puedo querer,
pero si no puedes, ni modo, que hacer?
(Se repite el coro)
Yo s que a mi lado t te sientes pero mucho muy feliz
y s que al decirte que soy pobre, no vuelves a sonrer,
