Goodbye, My Lovebird

Aquí llegó, tú paloma, mi vida...

This is, my lovebird, what happened to me...

Abre tus brazos, mi bien.

Open your arms, my sweet.

Mis ojos están llorando,

My eyes are full of tears,

porque no te pueden ver.

because they cannot see you.

Abre tus ojitos de agua,

Open your wet eyes,

calma de mi amor la sed.

calm my yearning for love,

Dale calor a mi vida,

give warmth to my life,

dame la dicha escondida,

give me the hidden happiness,

dame de ti que beber.

let me drink from you.

Viniste desde muy lejos

You came from far away

para encontrar en mí amor,

to find love in me,

amor con sabor a indio,

love with an Indian flavour,

indio que es todo pasión.

Indian, full of passion.

Quiso mi Virgen, que fuera

Virgin Mary, who was like the sun

lo que pa' mi tierra el sol,

for my land, wanted you

pa' que alumbraras mi vida,

to cast light over my life,

pa' que alumbraras mi vida

to cast light over my life

y la llenaras de amor.

and to fill it with love.

Ya se va, tú paloma, mi vida.

My life already ends, my lovebird.

Lleva en sus alas dolor.

In its wings it carries the pain,

Lleva en sus ojos tristeza

in its eyes it carries the sadness,

y es un lamento su voz.

and its voice is a lament.

Si alguna vez has llorado,

If you ever cried,

acuérdate de mi amor,

please, recall my love,

amor que nació aquel día,

love that was born that day,

amor que nunca se olvida,

love that one never forgets,

porque es el último amor

‘cause it's the last one.

Ya se va, tú paloma, mi vida...

My life already ends, my lovebird…

Songs of the band Chavela Vargas with translation to English:

María Tepozteca

Quisiera amarte menos

No soy de aqui, ni soy de alla

El último trago

Tú me acostumbraste
