Alondra

Lark

Alondra

Yo te di de comer en mis manos

I let you eat from my hands,

Te arrullé en mis brazos

I lulled you to sleep in my arms

Y todo fue en vano

and it was all in vain.

Alondra

En tus alas mis sueños huyeron

my dreams fled under your wings,

Mis locos anhelos

my crazy desires

Contigo se fueron

left together with you.

Alondra

Si me hubieras llevado contigo

if you have taken me with you

Adonde te has ido

to the place you have gone…

A ciegas me voy

Now I search the way blindly…

Alondra, Alondra

Fuiste cruel como nadie conmigo

you were as cruel to me as no one else,

Pero no te olvido

but I don’t forget you,

Ni guardo rencor

nor I bear you any grudge.

Alondra

Si te cruzas con mi pensamiento

if you saw my thoughts

Que va como el viento

that blow like the wind,

Siguiendo tu vuelo

following your flight…

Alondra

Si te dicen que sufro y que espero

If they tell you that I suffer and wait,

Ven que estoy rendida

come to me, ‘cause I’m worn-out,

Ven que ya no puedo

come to me, ‘cause I can’t.

Alondra

Si te llega faltar un alero

if you miss an eave,

Regresa te espero

come back, I wait for you,

Tu nido esta aquí

your nest is here.

Alondra, Alondra

Yo te di de comer en mis manos

I let you eat from my hands,

Te arrulle en mis brazos

I lulled you to sleep in my arms

Y hoy muero por ti

and now I’m dying because of you.
