I’m feeling downReíma roha'arõ
Oh man, white doveAjépa, rubita blanca
There’s no hope leftNdaiporivéima esperanza
We’re all in this togetherÑaimevévo oñondive
After all the joy and painHeta ha vy'a rire
Your absence is killing meNe pore'ỹ chehundíta
I’m still here, little doveAjéningo, tortolita
Just my bad luck, huh?Che mala suerte ra'e

I’m feeling so lostDesconsoládoma che
