Lyrics

Translation

A veces te recuerdo

Sometimes I remember you

Mirando al rio

Looking at the river

Dentro la espuma, lejos

Within the foam, far away

Anda el olvido.

Forgetting wanders.


Bajo este sauce solo

Under this lonely willow

Yo te he querido

I have loved you

Y se ha quedado el sauce

And the willow has remained

Mas pensativo.

More pensive.


Donde andara mi amor

Where will my love be

Que se fue penando

Who left in sorrow

Por este olvido

Because of this forgetting

Me vuelve con la zamba

The zamba brings him back

Arrepentido.

Repentant.


No se porque desando

I don't know why I wander

Viejos caminos

Old paths

Sabiendo que son otros

Knowing that our destinies

Nuestros destinos.

Are different.


Ya me voy con la tarde

Now I go with the evening

Triste y dolido

Sad and hurt

Nuestro amor es recuerdo

Our love is a memory

Lo llevo el rio.

The river carries it away.
