Lyrics and translation Mercedes Sosa - Te Recuerdo, Amanda




Te Recuerdo, Amanda
I Remember You, Amanda
Te recuerdo Amanda
I remember you, Amanda
La calle mojada
The wet street
Corriendo a la fábrica
Running to the factory
Donde trabajaba Manuel
Where Manuel worked
La sonrisa ancha
The wide smile
La lluvia en el pelo
The rain in your hair
No importaba nada
Nothing mattered
Ibas a encontrarte con él
You were going to meet him
Con él, con él, con él, con él
With him, with him, with him, with him
Son cinco minutos
It's five minutes
La vida es eterna en cinco minutos
Life is eternal in five minutes
Suena la sirena, de vuelta al trabajo
The siren sounds, back to work
Y caminando lo iluminas todo
And you walking, you brighten everything up
Los cinco minutos te hacen florecer
The five minutes make you blossom
Te recuerdo Amanda
I remember you, Amanda
La calle mojada
The wet street
Corriendo a la fábrica
Running to the factory
Donde trabajaba Manuel
Where Manuel worked
La sonrisa ancha
The wide smile
La lluvia en el pelo
The rain in your hair
No importaba nada
Nothing mattered
Ibas a encontrarte con él
You were going to meet him
Con él, con él, con él, con él
With him, with him, with him, with him
Que partió a la sierra
Who went to the mountains
Que nunca hizo daño, que partió a la sierra
Who never did any harm, who went to the mountains
Y en cinco minutos quedó destrozado
And in five minutes was destroyed
Suena las sirena, de vuelta al trabajo
The siren sounds, back to work
Muchos no volvieron, tampoco Manuel
Many did not return, neither did Manuel
Te recuerdo Amanda
I remember you, Amanda
La calle mojada
The wet street
Corriendo a la fábrica
Running to the factory
Donde trabajaba Manuel
Where Manuel worked
