Lyrics

Español

No fue culpa de ninguno O fue culpa de los dos, Lo que ha pasado Sólo lo sabe Dios. Primavera hay en el cielo Invierno en el corazón, Qué triste quedó el camino Después que le dije adiós. Se fue por la huella larga Y prendiendo a mi ilusión, La milonga más amarga Con tientos del corazón. Ella y él, por un sendero Por otro, mi canto y yo, Se fue porque así lo quiso Se fue porque quiso Dios. Yo a su lado fui sincero Y bien sé que ella también, Por eso quiero Le vaya bien. Ella no tiene la culpa Si no la puedo olvidar, Me están sobrando razones Para poder opinar.

English · machine translation

It was neither one's fault Or it was the fault of both, What happened Only God knows. Spring is in the sky Winter in the heart, How sad the road was left After I said goodbye. He went down the long trail And pinning on my illusion, The most bitter milonga With tientos of the heart. She and he, on one path On the other, my song and I, He left because he wanted to He left because God wanted him to. I was sincere at her side And I know she was too, That's why I want I want her to do well. She's not to blame If I can't forget her, I've got plenty of reasons To be able to give my opinion.
