Текст и перевод песни Julio Jaramillo feat. Olimpo Cardenas - La Cama Vacia

La Cama Vacia

Desde un tétrico hospital
Donde se hallaba internado
Casi agónico y rodeado de un silencio sepulcral
Con su ternura habitual
La que siempre demostró
Quizá con esfuerzo o no desde su lecho sombrío
Un enfermo amigo mío esta carta me escribió
Querido amigo quisiera
Que al recibir la presente
Te halles bien y que la suerte te acompañe por doquiera
Por mi parte mal pudiera decirte que estoy mejor
Y al contrario en mi dolor postrado en mi lecho yerto
Yo soy un pobre esqueleto
Que a mi mismo me da horror
La carta es para decirte
Que si podes algun día
Veni haceme compañia vos que tanto me quisiste
Que estoy tan solo y tan triste y lloro sin contenerme
Hoy nadie puede quererme
Todos se muestran invios
De tantos amigos míos
Ninguno ha venido a verme
Hoy yo les doy la razón
Pues veo en mi soledad
Que esa llamada amistad es tan solo una ilusión
Cuando uno esta en condición
Tiene amigos a granel
Pero si el destino es cruel
Hacia un abismo nos tira
Vemos que todo es mentira
Y que no hay amigo fiel
Bueno aquí ya me despido
Y al poner punto final
Recibe un abrazo leal de quién tanto te ha querido
Y a tu mamá que no olvido
También mis recuerdos dale
Mucha devoción mostrale y de caricias colmala
Vos que la tenes cuidala
Si supieras cuanto vale
Llego el domingo y ansioso
Por aquel amigo leal
Penetre en el hospital angustiado y pesaroso
Me dirigí silencioso
Al lugar donde sabia que en su lecho encontraria mas ahí ya no lo encontré
Y asombrado me quedé
Al ver su cama vacía

The Empty Bed

From a gloomy hospital
Where he lay confined
Almost lifeless and surrounded by a sepulchral silence
With his usual tenderness
Which he always showed
Perhaps with effort or not from his gloomy bed
An ill friend of mine wrote me this letter
Dear friend, I wish
That upon receiving this
You are well and that luck accompanies you wherever you go
From my perspective, I could hardly tell you that I am better
And on the contrary, in my pain lying on my cold bed
I am a poor skeleton
That even horrifies me
This letter is to tell you
That if you can someday
Come and keep me company, you who loved me so much
For I am so lonely and sad and I cry uncontrollably
Today, no one can love me
Everyone seems indifferent
Of so many friends of mine
Not one has come to see me
Today, I give them the reason
Because I see in my solitude
That so-called friendship is only an illusion
When one is in good health
One has friends in abundance
But if destiny is cruel
It throws us into an abyss
We see that everything is a lie
And that there is no faithful friend
Well, now I must bid you farewell
And in putting a final full stop
Receive a loyal embrace from one who has loved you so much
And to your mother whom I do not forget
My regards to her as well
Show her much devotion and shower her with caresses
You who have her, cherish her
If you only knew her worth
Sunday arrived, and I anxiously
For that loyal friend
Entered the hospital distressed and sorrowful
I went silently
To the place where I knew I would find him in his bed, but there I no longer found him
And I was astonished
To see his bed empty
