Percanta que me amuraste
en lo mejor de mi vida dejandome el alma herida y splin en el corazon, sabiendo que te queria, que vos eras mi alegria y mi sueño abrasador... Para mi ya no hay consuelo y por eso me encurdelo pa' olvidarme de tu amor. Cuando voy a mi cotorro
De noche cuando me acuesto
Ya no hay en el bulin
La guitarra en el ropero
|
Woman, you dumped me
at the prime of my life leaving my soul wounded and dullness in my heart, knowing that I loved you, that you were my joy and my burning dream... There is no solace for me, that is why I’m getting drunk to forget about you love. When I return to my room
At night when I go to bed
There are no longer in the
room
The guitar in the closet
|
The moment I
did surrender
my heart to you, I remember with love and kisses so tender, you promised you never lied, knowing that my heart was lonely and your promises were only, an excuse to get my love... and since then my life is broken and I find myself just walking never knowing where to go. In the room where we were
lovers,
Half awake I hear your footsteps,
I dont' see over your dresser
I remember in the evenings
|
Percanta: how the ruffian called his lover
Porteños:
those from the port; name given to those born in the capital city of Buenos
Aires.
