Paroles et traduction Nelly Omar - La cumparsita

La cumparsita

Si supieras
Que aún dentro de mi alma
Conservo aquel cariño que tuve para ti.
Quién sabe si supieras
Que nunca te he olvidado
Volviendo a tu pasado
Te acordarás de mí.

Los amigos ya no vienen
Ni siquiera a visitarme
Nadie quiere consolarme
En mi aflicción.

Desde el día que te fuiste
Siento angustias en mi pecho
Decí mi vida ¿qué has hecho
De mi pobre corazón?

A mi cuarto 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 comía
Al verme solo, el otro día, también me dejó

Quién sabe si supieras
Que nunca te he olvidado
Volviendo a tu pasado
Te acordarás de mí.

La cumparsita

If you only knew
That deep within my soul
I still cherish the love I once had for you.
Who knows, if you only knew
That I have never forgotten you,
As you journey back through your past
You will remember me.

Friends no longer come around
Not even to visit me
No one wants to comfort me
In my sorrow.

Since the day you left me,
My heart has been filled with anguish
My love, what have you done
To my poor heart?

My abandoned room
Is no longer graced by the morning sun
That used to peek through the window,
Like it did when you were here.
And that little dog, my faithful companion,
Who wouldn't eat out of sadness over your absence,
Seeing me so alone, the other day, decided to leave me too.

Who knows, if you only knew
That I have never forgotten you,
As you journey back through your past
You will remember me.
