LA CUMPARSITA

Version en castellano

English version

Mis amigos ya no vienen
ni siquiera a visitarme,
nadie viene consolarme
en mi afliccion...
Desde el dia que te fuiste
siento angustias en mi pecho,
deci, percanta, que has hecho
de mi pobre corazon? 

Sin embargo, yo siempre te recuerdo
con el cariño santo
que tuve para ti.
Y estas en todas partes,
pedazo de mi vida,
y aquellos ojos que fueron mi alegria
los busco por todas partes
y no los puedo hallar. 

Al cotorro abandonado
ya ni el sol de la mañana
asoma por la ventana
como cuando estabas vos,
y aquel perrito compañero
que por tu ausencia no comia,
al verme solo, el otro dia,
tambien me dejo.

My friends no longer come
not even to visit me,
nobody wants to console me
in my afliction...
Since the day that you left,
I feel anguish in my chest,
say, woman, what have you done
with my poor heart? 

However, I always remember you
with the saintly affection
that I had for you.
And you are everywhere,
piece of my life,
and those eyes that were my joy
I look for them everywhere
and I can't find them. 

To the abandoned pad
not even the morning sun
peeks through the window
like when you were here,
and that friendly puppy 
who because of your absence did not eat,
when it saw me all alone, the other day
it also left me.
