Dear Virgin

Virgen Querida

Dear Virgin, don’t burn me with your fireVirgen querida ne roventaname ko che ajamíta apurahéi
Oh my life, I’m suffering, can’t you see?Epáy mi vida ejapysaka ko che sufrimiento ndailajavéi

Lift me up, my dark one, take me by the handEpu'ãna mi negrita eipe'a upe ne rokê
To be your constant lover, that’s who I amRehecha haguã constante soy tu querido amante
Lift me up, my dark one, take me by the handEpu'ãna mi negrita eipe'a upe ne rokê
To be your constant lover, that’s who I amRehecha haguã constante soy tu querido amante

I think of you every minute, every secondChe apensáva nde rehe por minuto y por segundo
Like a shadow, who knows if you’re out there in the world?Ko cheichaite nde rayhúva quien sávepa oime en el mundo
I love you and from your house, I can’t escapeChe nde rayhu ha nde rechaségui nde róga esquínagui nasêvéi
And you, ungrateful, don’t you feel my pain?Ha nde ne ingrata ne añaségui ku resêmirõ nerema'êi
I love you and from your house, I can’t escapeChe nde rayhu ha nde rechaségui nde róga esquínagui nasêvéi
And you, ungrateful, don’t you feel my pain?Ha nde ne ingrata ne añaségui ku resêmirõ nerema'êi

One day, I’ll see you in another’s arms, a happy lifeAlgún día reime en otros brazos regosa vida feliz
Remember this faithful lover, don’t forget meNe mandu'a de este fiel amante hesarai ỹ'varã ndehegui

Goodbye, sprig of rosemary, goodbye, my flowerAdiós ramo de romero, adiós che yvotykuemi
This verse I’m leaving for you, I’m saying goodbye to youKóva ko verso ahejáta ndéve ajedespedívo che ndehegui
Goodbye, sprig of rosemary, goodbye, my flowerAdiós ramo de romero, adiós che yvotykuemi
This verse I’m leaving for you, I’m saying goodbye to youKóva ko verso ahejáta ndéve ajedespedívo che ndehegui
