Una Tarde

An Afternoon

Una Tarde

A cloudy and gloomy afternoon, when the sun was starting to set, she would look up and see me, today I find her and don't know what to do.Una tarde nublada y sombría, cuando el sol se empezaba a meter, ella alzaba la vista y me veía, hoy la encuentro y no hallo que hacer.

A little corner that I adore in my soul, that has come down from the sky, just as I love you my dear, I don't want to have riches.Rinconcito que en el alma adoro, que del cielo ha venido a caer, como a ti yo te quiero chiquita, yo riquezas no quiero tener.

Oh, if I'm not to have that joy, of watching you asleep in my arms, may God take my life, if you are my illusion and my being.Ay si no he de tener esa dicha, de mirarte en brazos dormida, que Dios padre me quite la vida, si eres tú mi ilusión y mi ser.

I'm leaving now, have a good night, my lyre doesn't want to play anymore, I hear sad voices, poor thing she wants to cry.Ya me voy, pasen muy buenas noches, ya mi lira no quiere sonar, oigo tristes sonidos de voces, pobrecita ella quiere llorar.

A little corner that I adore in my soul, that has come down from the sky, just as I love you my dear, I don't want to have riches.Rinconcito que en el alma adoro, que del cielo ha venido a caer, como a ti yo te quiero chiquita, yo riquezas no quiero tener.

Come to me, I'm waiting for you with open arms my love, like a wounded bird flying, to kiss your sweet little mouth.Ven a mi que te estoy esperando con los abrazos abiertos mi vida, como un pájaro hérido volando, a besarte tu dulce boquita.
