Lyrics

Español

Adiós para siempre, mitad de mi vida, un alma tan solo teníamos los dos. Mas hoy es preciso que a esa alma divida la amarga palabra del último adiós. ¿Por qué nos separan? ¿No saben acaso que pasa la vida cual pasa la flor? Cruzamos el mundo como aves de paso... Mañana, la tumba; ¿por qué hoy, el dolor? ¿La dicha secreta de dos que se adoran enoja los cielos, y es fuerza sufrir? ¿Tan solo son gratas las almas que lloran al torvo destino?... ¿La ley es morir? ¿Tan solo son gratas las almas que lloran al torvo destino?... ¿La ley es morir? ¿Quién es el destino?... Te arroja a mis brazos. En mi alma te imprime, te infunde en mi ser, y, bárbaro, luego me arranca a pedazos el alma y la vida contigo... ¿Por qué? Adiós... es preciso. No llores... y parte. La dicha de vernos nos quitan nomás; pero un solo instante dejar de adorarte, hacer que te olvide. ¿Lo pueden? ¡Jamás! Con lazos eternos nos hemos unido. En vano el destino nos hiere a los dos... ¡Las almas que se aman no tienen olvido, No tienen ausencia, no tienen adiós! ¡Las almas que se aman no tienen olvido, No tienen ausencia, no tienen adiós!

English · machine translation

Farewell forever, half of my life, we had only one soul, the two of us. But today it is necessary that that soul be divided the bitter word of the last goodbye. Why do you separate us? Don't you perhaps know That life passes as a flower passes? We cross the world like birds of passage? Tomorrow, the grave; why today, the pain? Does the secret joy of two who adore each other Anger the heavens, and is it strength to suffer? Are only the souls that mourn so pleasant Is it the law to die? Are only the souls that cry Is it the law to die? Who is destiny? It throws you into my arms. In my soul it imprints you, it infuses you in my being, and, barbarian, then it tears to pieces my soul and my life with you... Why? Farewell... it is necessary. Don't cry... and leave. The joy of seeing each other is only taken away from us; but a single instant to stop adoring you, to make me forget you. Can they? Never! With eternal bonds we have united. In vain does destiny wound us both.... The souls that love each other have no forgetfulness, They have no absence, they have no goodbye! The souls that love each other have no oblivion, They have no absence, they have no goodbye!
