Lyrics
Español
Quítate el rouge de los labios que no me marque su sello... Estoy herido de agravios y ese rouge es un veneno... Vení, sentate a mi lado... ¿Por qué te has pintado el pelo? ¿Por qué has tiznado tus ojos?, si son tus ojos tan negros. ¿No te bastaba un cariño?... Si me dan ganas de ahogarte, pero es tan blanco tu cuello que termino por besarte. ¡Cómo nos cambia la vida!... Toma ese espejo y mirá... Vos sos aquella que un día llevé confiado al altar. Pero... qué estoy diciendo... Si la culpa es solo mía. Te arranqué de la pobreza para traerte hasta aquí. Te hicieron mal las alturas, toda esa falsa alegría que destrozó la pureza de la flor que recogí. ¿Por qué me acerco a tus labios, si son dos brasas de fuego? ¿Por qué me acerco a tus labios, si sé que en ellos me quemo? Salí, salí de mi lado, mirá el color de tu pelo, mirá el dolor de tus ojos que eran más puros que un cielo. Vos destrozaste mi vida y, ya ves, por no matarte, cierro los ojos y sueño y te veo como antes... ¡Cómo nos cambia la vida!... Toma ese espejo y mirá... Vos sos aquella que un día llevé confiado al altar.

Take the rouge off your lips that it does not mark me with its seal... I am wounded by grievances and that rouge is a poison... Come, sit by my side... Why have you painted your hair? Why have you blackened your eyes?.., if your eyes are so black. Wasn't a sweetheart enough for you...? Yes, it makes me want to drown you, but your neck is so white that I end up kissing you. How life changes us!... Take that mirror and look... You are the one that one day I took confidently to the altar. But... what am I saying... If the fault is mine alone. I plucked you from poverty to bring you here. The heights did you wrong, all that false joy that destroyed the purity of the flower I picked. Why do I approach your lips if they are two embers of fire? Why do I approach your lips if I know that in them I burn? Get out, get out of my side, look at the color of your hair, look at the pain in your eyes that were purer than a sky. You destroyed my life and, you see, for not killing you, I close my eyes and dream and I see you as before... How life changes us!... Take that mirror and look... You are the one that one day I took confidently to the altar.
