Lyrics

Español

Ojos negros, que fascinan ojos negros, que dominan; ojos negros, dulces ojos son tan crueles y tan piadosos. Ojos negros, que arrebatan; ojos negros, que me matan; ojos negros, dulces ojos, triste vida de mi corazón. Voy pasando por mi vida atormentada bajo el fuego abrasador de tu mirada, voy cruzando por la vida como una pobre sombra perdida. En el fondo de mi alma ya no brilla más que el fuego abrasador de tu pupila; en el fondo de mi alma, donde siempre tu amor vivirá

English · machine translation

Black eyes, that fascinate black eyes, that dominate; black eyes, sweet eyes they are so cruel and so merciful. Black eyes, that carry you away; black eyes, that kill me; black eyes, sweet eyes, sorrowful life of my heart. I go passing through my life tormented under the scorching fire of your gaze, I go crossing through life like a poor lost shadow. In the depths of my soul nothing shines any more but the scorching fire of your eyes; in the depths of my soul, where your love will always live
