Lyrics

A veces te recuerdo
Mirando al rio
Dentro la espuma, lejos
Anda el olvido
Bajo este sauce solo
Yo te he querido
Y se ha quedado el sauce
Mas pensativo
Donde andara mi amor
Que se fue penando
Por este olvido
Me vuelve con la zamba
Arrepentido
No se porque desando
Viejos caminos
Sabiendo que son otros
Nuestros destinos
Ya me voy con la tarde
Triste y dolido
Nuestro amor es recuerdo
Lo llevo el rio
Debajo del sauce solo
A veces te recuerdo
Mirando el rio;
Dentro la espuma, lejos
Anda el olvido
Bajo este sauce solo
Yo te he querido
Y se ha quedado el sauce
Mas pensativo
Donde andara mi amor
Que se fue
Penando por este olvido
Me vuelve con la zamba
Arrepentido
No se porque desando
Dulces caminos
Sabiendo que son otros
Nuestros destinos
Ya me voy con la tarde
Triste, dolido
Nuestro amor es recuerdo:
Lo lleva el rio

Lyrics translation

Sometimes I remember you
Looking at the river
Inside the foam, away
There goes the forgetfulness
Under this Willow alone
I've loved you
And the Willow is left
But thoughtful
Where my love will go
That he went down
For this forgetfulness
I'm back with the zamba
Repentant
I don't know why I'm unleashing
Old roads
Knowing that they are others
Our destinations
I'm leaving in the afternoon.
Sad and hurt
Our love is memory
I take the river
Under the willow alone
Sometimes I remember you
Looking at the river;
Inside the foam, away
There goes the forgetfulness
Under this Willow alone
I've loved you
And the Willow is left
But thoughtful
Where my love will go
That he left
Grieving for this forgetfulness
I'm back with the zamba
Repentant
I don't know why I'm unleashing
Sweet paths
Knowing that they are others
Our destinations
I'm leaving in the afternoon.
Sad, hurt
Our love is memory:
The river takes it
