The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Samba Pa Ti" by José Feliciano.

Lyrics

Soy la sombra de una pena,
Soy el eco de un dolor.
Triste soledad, que me queda hoy.
El recuerdo de que te amé
Y una extraña desolación, eyy, eyyy.
Soy la sombra de una pena,
Soy el eco de un dolor.
Quiero olvidar, quiero encontrar perdón.
Ten piedad de mi corazón
Yo te imploro mi Señor.
Borraré las tinieblas y esconderé mi llanto
El recuerdo que sufro se volverá un canto.
Volveré a la vida, volveré a cantar, ya verá,
Volveré a la vida, volveré a cantar, ya verá.

Lyrics translation

I am the shadow of a pity,
I'm the echo of a pain.
Sad loneliness, which remains for me today.
The memory that I loved you
And a strange desolation, eyy, eyyy.
I am the shadow of a pity,
I'm the echo of a pain.
I want to forget, I want to find forgiveness.
Have mercy on my heart
I beseech Thee, My Lord.
I will erase the darkness and hide my weeping
The memory I suffer will become a song.
I'll come back to life, I'll sing again, you'll see,
I'll come back to life, sing again, you'll see.
