Lyrics

Español

Mi drama, señor juez, es esta historia Que puede comenzar por el final, Ya sé que en lo grotesco de mi gloria No es fácil parecer sentimental. La vida que le di, fue una tortura Y su alma soportó mi frenesí, Mis celos terminaron en locura Y en medio de un infierno, me perdí. Y vi neblina en sus ojos Cuando mis dedos de acero, En su cuello de nácar Bordaron un collar. Rodó besando mis manos Y apenas pudo gritar, Su voz se ahogó sin reproche Y así mansamente, tuvo fin su noche. Tengo su angustia en mis ojos Y no la puedo arrancar. Yo quiero, señor juez, con esta historia De un crimen tan perverso y tan brutal, Que no haya ni una marca en su memoria Que sepan que era buena y le hice mal...

English · machine translation

My drama, Your Honor, is this story That can begin at the end, I know that in the grotesqueness of my glory It is not easy to appear sentimental. The life I gave him, was a torture And her soul endured my frenzy, My jealousy ended in madness And in the midst of hell, I lost myself. And I saw mist in her eyes When my fingers of steel, On her mother-of-pearl neck Embroidered a necklace. She rolled kissing my hands And she could hardly cry out, Her voice was drowned out without reproach. And so meekly, her night ended. I have her anguish in my eyes And I can't tear it away. I want, your honor, with this story Of a crime so wicked and so brutal, That there be not a mark on her memory That they may know that she was good and I did her wrong...
