Paroles et traduction Aníbal Troilo Y Su Orquesta - Te aconsejo que me dejes

Te aconsejo que me dejes

Recibí tu última carta,
En la cual tú me decías:
"Te aconsejo que me olvides,
Todo ha muerto entre los dos.
Sólo pido mi retrato
Y todas las cartas mías,
Ya lo sabes que no es justo
Que aún eso conserves vos".
Hoy reconoces la falta,
Tenés miedo que yo diga...
Que le cuente al que tu sabes
Nuestra íntima amistad;
¡Soy muy hombre, no te vendo,
No soy capaz de una intriga!
Lo comprendo que, si hablara,
Quiebro tu felicidad.

Pero no vas a negar
Que cuando vos fuiste mía,
Dijiste que me querías,
Que no me ibas a olvidar;
Y que ciega de cariño
Me besabas en la boca,
Como si estuvieras loca...
Sedienta, nena, de amar.

Yo no tengo inconveniente
En enviarte todo eso,
Sin embargo, aunque no quieras,
Algo tuyo ha de quedar.
El vacío que dejaste
Y el calor de aquellos besos
Bien lo sabes que no puedo
Devolvértelos jamás.
Yo lo hago en bien tuyo
Evitando un compromiso,
Sacrifico mi cariño
Por tu apellido y tu honor;
Me conformo con mi suerte,
Ya que así el destino quiso
Pero acuérdate bien mío,
¡que esto lo hago por tu amor!

I Advise You to Leave Me

I received your last letter,
In which you told me:
"I advise you to forget me,
Everything has died between us.
I only ask for my portrait
And all my letters,
You know it's not fair
That you still keep them".
Today you recognize the fault,
You're afraid that I will say...
That I will tell the one you know
Our intimate friendship;
I'm very much a man, I won't sell you out,
I'm not capable of intrigue!
I understand that if I were to speak,
I would break your happiness.

But you won't deny
That when you were mine,
You said you loved me,
That you would not forget me;
And that blinded by love
You kissed me on the mouth,
As if you were crazy...
Thirsty, baby, to love.

I have no objection
To sending you all that,
However, even if you don't want it,
Something of yours must remain.
The emptiness you left
And the warmth of those kisses
You know well that I cannot
Return them to you ever.
I do it for your own good
Avoiding a commitment,
I sacrifice my love
For your name and your honor;
I resign myself to my fate,
Since destiny would have it so
But remember me well,
that I do this for your love!
