Last Joy

Dicha pasada

Yesterday when I saw you so proudAyer cuando te vi tan altanera
strolling with the one who was my rival,pasear con el que fuese mi rival,
I thought of those fifteen springspensé en aquellas quince primaveras
that gave more beauty to your gaze.que dio más hermosura a tu mirar.
But today you're not the same as before,Pero hoy no sos la misma que eras antes,
the light that was in your eyes has gone out,la luz que hubo en tus ojos se apagó,
you have a bitterness in your expression,tenés una amargura en tu semblante,
that no one will know like I do.que nadie ha de saberla como yo.

And even if you deny that you've sufferedY aunque me niegues que has sufrido
I know well that you've livedyo bien sé que has vivido
through a thousand agonizing hoursmil horas angustiosas
and that in your heart have stayedy que en tu pecho se han quedado
the joys of the pastlas dichas del pasado
like withered roses...como marchitas rosas...
If you left me for another man,Si por otro hombre me dejaste,
I don't want to blame youno quiero reprocharte
for how poorly you loved me.lo mal que me has querido.
You're a woman, and I forgive youVos sos mujer y te perdono
because in the end, with your leavingque al fin con tu abandono
you've made me happier.me has hecho más feliz.

I'm like a bee, flying freeYo soy como la abeja, libre vuelo
and in search of another love, my soul goes,y en pos de otro cariño mi alma va,
for when I need some comfortpues cuando necesito algún consuelo
there's another who gives it to my life.hay otra que a mi vida se lo da.
And since it was your choice to scorn meY ya que fue tu gusto el despreciarme
I will never return to your side.jamás nunca a tu lado volveré.
I repay you as you’ve known how to repay me,Te pago como has sabido pagarme,
and I will forget all that past.y todo aquel pasado olvidaré.
