Lyrics

Niegas con él lo que hiciste
Y mis sospechas te asombran
Pero si no le quisiste
Por qué te pones tan triste
Cuando en tu casa le nombran?
Niegas con él lo que hiciste
Y mis sospechas te asombran
Pero si no le quisiste
Por qué te pones tan triste
Cuando en tu casa le nombran?
Dices que son cosas mías
Y que te estoy engañando
Mas por qué le sonreías
Sonreías cuando él te estaba mirando?
Si ahora, en no ser te empeñas
Culpable como pareces
Si él te odia y tú le desdeñas
Por qué, por qué tantas veces
Os vi entenderos por señas?
Si no dejaste en derroche
De amor que te acariciara
Por qué te azotó una noche
Una noche con el pañuelo la cara?

Lyrics translation

You deny with him what you did
And my suspicions amaze you
But you didn't love him.
Why do you get so sad
When in your house they name him?
You deny with him what you did
And my suspicions amaze you
But you didn't love him.
Why do you get so sad
When in your house they name him?
You say it's my stuff
And that I'm cheating on you
But why did you smile at him
Did you smile when he was looking at you?
If now, in not being you strive
Guilty as you seem
If he hates you and you disdain him
Why, why so many times
Did I see you understand each other by signs?
If you didn't waste
Of love that caressed you
Why did he whip you one night?
One night with the face handkerchief?
