Entre suspiro y suspiro
Entre suspiro y suspiro
No encuentro el olvido
Me está matando el querer
Porque una ingrata perjura
Que mi alma tortura
Me hiere con su desdén
Entre sollozo y sollozo
No tengo reposo
Y lloro y canto a la vez
Porque cantando mitigo
El duro castigo
Que dios me quiso imponer
¿Por qué diosito tan bueno
Que siendo justo y sereno
Me manda un castigo así?
¿Por que me escogió esta suerte
Y me ha sentenciado a muerte
Nomás por quererla así?
Entre suspiro y suspiro

Between sigh and sigh
Between sigh and sigh
I can't find the forgetfulness
The desire is killing me
Because an ungrateful liar
Who tortures my soul
Wounds me with her disdain
Between sob and sob
I have no rest
And I cry and sing at the same time
Because by singing I alleviate
The harsh punishment
That God wanted to impose on me
Why, dear God, so good
Who being fair and serene
Sends me such a punishment?
Why did he choose this fate for me
And has sentenced me to death
Just for loving her like this?
