Mi Castigo
Ladron · Top Ten [2005]
siempre la mala suerte meha
de ver que me perdone dios
que esta mirando pero cual
es mi culpa nolo se
ahora dime tu que hiciste que
hiciste de mi vida hay de mi
que caro estoy pagando por
querete como un delito que no cometi
mi castigo fue tu amor mi castigo
ha sido tu traicion y asi lo hiciste
tengo roto el corazon voy sufriendo
mi disilucion pues me mentiste
mi castigo fue el amor que me fingiste

As part of a collection of popular tracks from that era, the recording captures the vibrant energy and melodic sensibilities that helped establish Ladron's reputation as a leading figure in modern cumbia. The song's enduring appeal lies in its infectious rhythm and the way it encapsulates the universal sentiment of love and consequence, making it a staple for both casual listeners and dedicated fans of the genre.
