Текст и перевод песни Olimpo Cárdenas - Hay Que Saber Perder

Hay Que Saber Perder

Desde el triste sía en que me dejaste
Ya no te ví mas
No tengo noticias tuyas, me pregunto
En que andarás.
Parece que te tragó la tierra
No te encuentro ni de casualidad
A veces pienso que te has muerto,
Que te has ido a otra ciudad.
Y es hermosa la agonía
Del calvario, de esperar que me llegue
Aunque sea un comentario.

Y me conformo con saber
Que seguís siendo esa mujer
Que aunque ya no pienses en mi
Todas las noches sonreis.
Y me consuelo al entender
Que aunque te sufro en soledad
Fui un escalón importante
En tu felicidad.

No es que tenga celos
Ni mucho menos esperanzas de volver.
Si soy todo un caballero
Tengo que saber perder.
Pero reconozco que me gana la curiosidad
De saber si ya le regalaste a otro mi lunar
Y es hermosa esta tristeza de escenario
De esperar noticias tuyas
Aunque sea por el diario
Y me conformo con saber
Que seguis siendo esa mujer
Que aunque ya no pienses en mi
Todas las noches sonreis
Y me consuelo al entender
Que aunque te sufro en soledad
Fui un escalon importante en tu felicidad
Fui un escalon importante en tu felicidad

We Must Know How to Lose

Since the sad day you left me
I've not seen you again.
I have no news of you, I wonder
Where you may be.
It seems the earth swallowed you
I can't find you, not even by chance.
Sometimes I think you died,
You went to another city.
And the agony is beautiful
Of the ordeal, of waiting for you to come to me
Even if it's just a note.

And I conform to knowing
That you continue being that woman
That although you no longer think of me
Every night you smile.
And I console myself in understanding
That although I suffer for you in solitude
I was an important step
In your happiness.

It's not that I'm jealous,
Nor much less hoping to return.
If I am a true gentleman
I must know how to lose.
But I admit curiosity overcomes me
To know if you've already given someone else my birthmark.
And this sadness is beautiful of scenery.
Of waiting for news of you,
If only through the newspaper.
And I conform to knowing,
That you continue being that woman
That although you no longer think of me
Every night you smile.
And I console myself in understanding
That although I suffer for you in solitude
I was an important step in your happiness.
I was an important step in your happiness.
