Lyrics

Casi casi me quisiste,
casi te he querido yo.
No llores negra, no llores, no.
Si no es por el casi, casi,
casi me caso con vos.
No llores negra, no llores, no.
El pañuelo que me diste
rama en rama se quedó.
No llores negra, no llores, no.
Vino un fuerte remolino
rama y todo se llevó.
No llores negra, no llores, no.
Botellita dibujada
llenita de agua de olor.
No llores negra, no llores, no.
El quererte no era nada,
el dejarte era un dolor.
No llores negra, no llores, no.

Lyrics translation

You almost almost loved me.,
I almost loved you.
Don't cry Black, Don't cry, no.
If not for the almost, almost,
I almost married you.
Don't cry Black, Don't cry, no.
The handkerchief you gave me
branch on branch stayed.
Don't cry Black, Don't cry, no.
A strong whirlwind came
branch and everything took away.
Don't cry Black, Don't cry, no.
Little bottle drawn
filled with smelling water.
Don't cry Black, Don't cry, no.
Loving You was nothing,
leaving you was a pain.
Don't cry Black, Don't cry, no.
