Lyrics
Español
En ti viví un amor, por ti soñé feliz... Y fue cual renacer de dicha pleno, en un mundo ideal para mí, jamás podré olvidar la luz y el esplendor, la fe y la ilusión que con tu amor vertiste en mí. Recuerdo con el alma las horas que ayer gocé juntito a tu buen amor, amante y bella mujer, mas, breve fue la dicha y efímera la ilusión porque a éstas las quebró el dolor... Pasaron ya las horas de encanto y de placer quedando sólo dolor, olvido y desilusión, qué triste es para un hombre el recuerdo de un buen amor ¡porque viene a torturar su ser...! Hoy yo no sé adónde estás, mi buena amiga que ayer te amé con pasión. Mi incomprensión mató el querer dejando en mi alma un mal como castigo de amor.
English · machine translation
In you I lived a love, for you I dreamed happily... And it was like a rebirth of full bliss, in an ideal world for me, I will never be able to forget the light and the splendor, the faith and the illusion that with your love you poured into me. I remember with my soul the hours that yesterday I enjoyed together with your good love, lover and beautiful woman, but the happiness was brief and the illusion ephemeral... because they were broken by pain... The hours of enchantment and pleasure are gone leaving only pain, oblivion and disillusionment, How sad it is for a man the memory of a good love because it comes to torture his being...! Today I do not know where you are, my good friend that yesterday I loved you with passion. My incomprehension killed my love leaving in my soul an evil as a punishment of love.
