Текст и перевод песни El Caballero Gaucho - Cuando Te Conocí

Cuando Te Conocí

Cuando te conoci, en ese barrio cruel
Donde no valia nada tu vida,
Yo te ivite a beber
Y tu aceptaste al fin,
Sonaba tu cancion preferida.
En un rincon del bar
Donde todavia esta la mesita;
De las copas salio el tintineo sutil,
Y bebimos; sin cesar.
Su historia supe yo, y en sus ojos mire
Que el brillo de su luz se apagaba.
Lloraba de dolor, mi brazo le tendi
Sin reprocharle nada el pasado.
Entonces me beso
Y al tiempo que sonaba aquel piano,
De la mano los dos
Salimos de aquel bar,
Silenciosos; sin hablar.
Hoy su recuerdo de mi mente no me quito
Enloquecido por mi bella obsecion,
Y miro triste aquel rincon maldito
Que igual como ella tambien me traiciono.
Hoy su recuerdo de mi mente no me quito
Enloquecido por mi bella obsecion
Y miro triste aquel rincon maldito
Que igual como ella tambien me traiciono.

When I Met You

When I met you, in that cruel neighborhood
Where your life was worth nothing,
I invited you to have a drink
And you finally accepted,
Your favorite song was playing.
In a corner of the bar
Where the small table still is;
From the glasses came a subtle clinking,
And we drank; without stopping.
I learned your story, and in your eyes I saw
That the brightness of your light was fading.
You cried in pain, I offered you my arm
Without reproaching you for the past.
Then you kissed me
And while that piano played,
Hand in hand we
Left that bar,
Silent; without speaking.
Today your memory I can't get out of my mind
Driven mad by my beautiful obsession,
And I sadly look at that cursed corner
That just like her also betrayed me.
Today your memory I can't get out of my mind
Driven mad by my beautiful obsession
And I sadly look at that cursed corner
That just like her also betrayed me.
