Lyrics
Milonga paraguaya
Prima lejana de Mangoré
¿Qué me estará queriendo decir la noche que no lo sé?
¿Qué me estará queriendo decir la noche que no lo sé?
Yo miro a mi guitarra
Busco en las grietas del corazón
Cómo estaré de solo que estoy hablándole a una canción
Cómo estaré de solo que estoy hablándole a una canción
Pasa un segundo como pasa una página en blanco
Que no estrené
Paso la vida buscando un verso que nunca encontraré
Paso la vida buscando un verso que nunca encontraré
Cuando me quedé solo
Varado y lejos del mar, yo sé
Que aunque no tenga nada, tendré a esta copla esperándome
Que aunque no tenga nada, tendré a esta copla esperándome
Abre tus brazos y suéltate el pelo
Que vengo buscándote
Milonga paraguaya, prima lejana de Mangoré
Lyrics translation
Paraguayan Milonga
Distant cousin of Mangoré
What are you trying to tell me the night I don't know?
What are you trying to tell me the night I don't know?
I look at my guitar
I look in the cracks of the heart
How will I be alone that I'm talking to a song
How will I be alone that I'm talking to a song
Pass a second as a blank page passes
That I didn't premiere
I spend my life searching for a verse I'll never find
I spend my life searching for a verse I'll never find
When I was left alone
Stranded and far from the sea, I know
That even if I have nothing, I'll have this copla waiting for me
That even if I have nothing, I'll have this copla waiting for me
Open your arms and let go of your hair
That I came looking for you
Milonga paraguaya, distant cousin of Mangoré
