Lyrics and translation Daniel Toro - Zamba para Olvidarte

Zamba para Olvidarte

No sé para qué volviste si yo empezaba a olvidar
No sé si ya lo sabrás lloré cuando vos te fuiste
No sé para qué volviste, qué mal me hace recordar

La tarde se ha puesto triste y yo prefiero callar
Para qué vamos a hablar de cosas que ya no existen
No sé para que volviste, ya ves que es mejor no hablar

Qué pena me da
Saber que al final de este amor
Ya no queda nada
Sólo una pobre canción
Da vueltas por mi guitarra
Y hace rato que te extraña
Mi zamba para olvidar

Mi zamba vivió conmigo, parte de mi soledad
No sé si ya lo sabrás, mi vida se fue contigo
Contigo mi amor, contigo, qué mal me hace recordar
Mis manos ya son de barro tanto apretar al dolor
Y ahora que me falta el sol no sé que venís buscando
Llorando mi amor, llorando, también olvídame vos

Zamba to Forget You

I don't know why you came back, I was already starting to forget
I don't know if you've heard, I cried when you left
I don't know why you came back, it hurts so much to remember

The afternoon has turned sad and I prefer to stay silent
What's the point of talking about things that no longer exist
I don't know why you came back, you see that it's better not to speak

How sad
To know that at the end of this love
Nothing remains
Only a lonely song
Circles around my guitar
And it's been a long time since it missed you
My zamba for forgetting

My zamba lived with me, part of my loneliness
I don't know if you've heard, my life went with you
With you my love, with you, how much pain it gives me to remember
My hands are now like clay, so much have they squeezed pain
And now that I have no sun, I don't know what you're looking for
Worrying my love, worrying, forget me too
