Lyrics

La única estrella
Que tiene mi cielo
Se está borrando
La nube negra
De mi desgracia
Poquito a poco la va tapando
Y, aunque yo quiera
Que no se vaya
Ya es mi destino jamás mirarla
Quién me lo manda:
Poner los ojos
En una estrella que está tan alta
La única estrella
Que tiene mi cielo
Se está perdiendo
La nube negra
De mi desgracia
Poquito a poco la va cubriendo
Y, aunque yo quiera
Que no me deje
Ella se aleja mientras yo grito
Quién me lo manda:
Poner los ojos
En una estrella del infinito

Lyrics translation

The only star
What has my sky
It's fading.
The black cloud
Of my misfortune
Little by little he's covering it up
And even if I want to
Don't let him go.
It's my destiny to never look at her
Who sent me?:
Putting your eyes
On a star that's so high
The only star
What has my sky
It's getting lost
The black cloud
Of my misfortune
Little by little he's covering it up
And even if I want to
Don't leave me
She walks away while I scream
Who sent me?:
Putting your eyes
On a star of Infinity
