Tres Claveles y Un Rosal
Las puertas del panteón, se abrieron de par en par
Sepultaron a mi amor, jure, no volver a amar
Hasta la tumba llegue, donde hoy descansa en paz
Y en su tumba le deje, tres claveles y un rosal
Con lágrimas en mis ojos, en su tumba deje escrito
Los claveles son tú amor, y el rosal es tu olvido
Salí del triste panteón, vi la tumba abandonada
Dios mío guárdame su amor, Dios mío recoge su alma
Se me olvido mi pañuelo, cuando regrese por el
Vi que en la cruz escribía, nunca te olvidaré
Y me incliné, recogí el pañuelo, que olvidaba yo
Y los claveles mire, los claveles mire
Pero el rosal, ya no estaba
Three Carnations and a Rose
The gates of the cemetery, swung wide open
Buried my love, swore, never to love again
Until I reached the grave, where he now rests in peace
And on his grave, I left three carnations and a rose
With tears in my eyes, I wrote on his tomb
The carnations are your love, and the rose is your forgetfulness
I left the sad cemetery, saw the abandoned tomb
My God keep his love, my God take his soul
I forgot my handkerchief, when I returned for it
I saw that on the cross he wrote, I will never forget you
And I bent down, picked up the handkerchief, that I had forgotten
And I saw the carnations, I saw the carnations
But the rose, was no longer there
