− | Callejón, callejón,
| + | |
− | lejano, lejano.
| + | |
− | Íbamos perdidos de la mano
| + | |
− | bajo un cielo de verano
| + | |
− | soñando en vano.
| + | |
− | Un farol, un portón,
| + | |
− | igual que en un tango,
| + | |
− | y los dos perdidos de la mano
| + | |
− | y ese cielo de verano
| + | |
− | que partió.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Déjame que llore crudamente
| + | |
− | con el llanto viejo del adiós.
| + | |
− | Adonde el callejón se pierde
| + | |
− | brotó ese yuyo verde
| + | |
− | del perdón.
| + | |
− | Déjame que llore y te recuerde,
| + | |
− | trenzas que me anudan al portón.
| + | |
− | De tu país ya no se vuelve
| + | |
− | ni con el yuyo verde
| + | |
− | del perdón.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | ¿Dónde estás? ¿Dónde estás?
| + | |
− | ¿Adónde te has ido?
| + | |
− | ¿Dónde están las plumas de mi nido,
| + | |
− | la emoción de haber vivido
| + | |
− | y aquel cariño?
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Un farol, un portón,
| + | |
− | igual que en un tango,
| + | |
− | y este llanto mío entre mis manos
| + | |
− | y ese cielo de verano
| + | |
− | que partió.

− | <poem>
| + | |
− | Alley, alley,
| + | |
− | far, faraway.
| + | |
− | We went around lost, hand in hand
| + | |
− | under a Summer sky,
| + | |
− | dreaming in vain.
| + | |
− | A street lamp, a gate,
| + | |
− | just like in a tango,
| + | |
− | and the two of us lost, hand in hand,
| + | |
− | and that Summer sky
| + | |
− | that departed.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Let me cry bluntly
| + | |
− | with the old tears of farewell.
| + | |
− | Where the alley disappears
| + | |
− | sprouted that green weed
| + | |
− | of forgiveness.
| + | |
− | Let me cry and remember you,
| + | |
− | braids that tie me to the gate.
| + | |
− | There is no returning from your country anymore,
| + | |
− | not even with the green weed
| + | |
− | of forgiveness. | + | |
− | | + | |
− | Where are you? Where are you?
| + | |
− | Where have you gone?
| + | |
− | Where are the feathers of my nest,
| + | |
− | the thrill of having lived,
| + | |
− | and that love?
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | A street lamp, a gate,
| + | |
− | just as in a tango,
| + | |
− | and all the tears I'm crying in my hands
| + | |
− | and that Summer sky
| + | |
− | that departed.
