Lyrics

Español

Nada me importa de tu amor, golpeá nomás... el corazón me dijo, que tu amor fue una falsía, aunque juraste y juraste que eras mía. No llames más, no insistas más, yo te daré... el libro del recuerdo, para que guardes las flores del olvido porque vos lo has querido el esquinazo yo te doy. Fue por tu culpa que he tomado otro camino sin tino... Vida mía. Jamás pensé que llegaría este momento que siento, la más terrible realidad... Tu ingratitud me ha hecho sufrir un desencanto si tanto... te quería. Mas no te creas que por esto guardo encono Perdono tu más injusta falsedad.

English · machine translation

I don't care about your love, just hit me... my heart told me, that your love was a fake, although you swore and swore that you were mine. Don't call anymore, don't insist anymore, I'll give you... the book of remembrance, so that you can keep the flowers of oblivion because you wanted it the corner I give you. It was because of you that I have taken another path without sense... My life. I never thought that this moment would come that I feel, the most terrible reality... Your ingratitude has made me suffer a disenchantment if so much... I loved you so much. But don't believe that for this I harbor resentment I forgive your most unjust falsehood.
