Lyrics
Si supieras,
Que aún dentro de mi alma,
Conservo aquel cariño
Que tuve para ti
Quién sabe si supieras
Que nunca te he olvidado,
Volviendo a tu pasado
Te acordarás de mí
Los amigos ya no vienen
Ni siquiera a visitarme,
Nadie quiere consolarme
En mi aflicción
Desde el día que te fuiste
Siento angustias en mi pecho,
Decí, percanta,
Qué has hecho e mi pobre corazón?
Sin embargo,
Yo siempre te recuerdo
Con el cariño santo
Que tuve para ti
Y estás en todas partes,
Pedazo de mi vida,
Y aquellos ojos que fueron mi alegría
Los busco por todas partes
Y no los puedo hallar
Al cotorro abandonado
Ya ni el sol de la mañana
Asoma por la ventana
Como cuando estabas vos,
Y aquel perrito compañero,
Que por tu ausencia no comía,
Al verme solo el otro día
También me dejó
Lyrics translation
If you knew,
That still within my soul,
I keep that affection
That I had for you
Who knows if you knew
That I've never forgotten you,
Going back to your past
You'll remember me
Friends are no longer coming
Not even to visit me.,
No one wants to comfort me
In my affliction
Since the day you left
I feel anguish in my chest,
I said, percanta,
What Have you done to my poor heart?
However,,
I always remember you
With holy affection
That I had for you
And you're everywhere,
Piece of my life,
And those eyes that were my joy
I look everywhere for them
And I can't find them
To the abandoned quack
Not even the morning sun anymore
Peeks out the window
Like when you were,
And that little dog companion,
That because of your absence I didn't eat,
Seeing me alone the other day
He also left me
