Lyrics

Español

Ya está mi pieza, señor juez, abierta, que pasen todos a embargar sin compasión, ya pueden hoy entrar por esa puerta, por donde salió ayer ¡mi última ilusión! Que puedo hacer, señor, si ya se ha muerto, embarguen todo... Ya no hay plata... ¡la gasté! He comprado alimentos para ella... Inútiles remedios... ¡Y ayer la sepulté! Nada quiero, embarguen todo. Trapos... sillas... y el ropero. La máquina en que la pobre cosía cuando estuve enfermo... Ahí están mis herramientas, total... ¡para qué las quiero! Ellas me traerán dinero, pero no a la que se fue. Usted que es bueno, señor juez, ordene que no me toquen la camita en que durmió que aún las huellas de su cuerpo tiene en donde yo la amé ¡y en donde se murió! Embarguen todo... todo lo que tengo, y si precisan una vida ¡estoy aquí! Pero al que sea osado, le prevengo, que si toca esta cama se acordará de mí…

English · machine translation

My room is open now, your honour, let them all come in and seize it without pity, they can come in today through that door, through which went out yesterday my last dream! What can I do, sir, if she's dead already, seize everything... There's no money now... I spent it! I bought food for her... Useless medicines... And yesterday I buried her! I want nothing, seize it all. Rags... chairs... and the wardrobe. The machine on which the poor woman sewed when I was ill... There are my tools, after all... what do I want them for! They'll bring me money, but not the woman who has gone. You who are a good man, your honour, order them not to touch the little bed where she slept that still holds the traces of her body where I loved her and where she died! Seize everything... everything I have, and if you need a life, here I am! But whoever is so bold, I warn him, that if he touches this bed he'll have cause to remember me...
