Текст и перевод песни Aníbal Troilo - Romance de Barrio

Romance de Barrio

Primero la cita lejana de Abril
Tu oscuro balcon, tu antiguo jardin
Mas tarde las cartas de pulso febril
Mintiendo que no, jurando que si

Romance de barrio, tu amor y mi amor
Primero un querer, después un dolor
Por culpas que nunca tuvimos
Por culpas que debimos sufrir los dos

Hoy viviras despreciandome, tal vez sin pensar
Que lamento al no poderte tener
El dolor de no saber olvidar
Hoy estaras como nunca lejos mio
Lejos de tanto llorar

Fue porque si, que el despecho te cego como a mi
Sin mirar que en el rencor del adios
Castigabas con crueldad tu corazón
Fue porque si, que de pronto no supimos pensar
Que es más facil renegar y partir que vivir sin olvidar

Retornan vencidas tu voz y mi voz
Trayendo al volver con tonos de horror
Las culpas que nunca tuvimos
Las culpas que debimos pagar los dos

Neighborhood Romance

First the distant date of April
Your dark balcony, your old garden
Later the letters with a feverish pulse
Lying that no, swearing that yes

Neighborhood romance, your love and my love
First a love, then a pain
For faults that we never had
For faults that we should both suffer

Today you will live despising me, perhaps without thinking
That I regret not being able to have you
The pain of not knowing how to forget
Today you will be farther from me than ever
Far from so much crying

It was because yes, that the spite blinded you as it did me
Without seeing that in the resentment of goodbye
You were punishing your heart with cruelty
It was because yes, that suddenly we did not know how to think
That it is easier to deny and leave than to live without forgetting

Your voice and my voice return defeated
Bringing back with tones of horror
The faults that we never had
The faults that we should both pay for
