Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo
Tanto, pues ya no puedo sollozar;
Solo, temblando de ansiedad estoy
Todos me miran y se van.
Mujer, si puedes tu con Dios hablar,
Preguntale si yo alguna vez
Te he dejado de adorar.
Y al mar, espejo de mi corazón,
Las veces que me ha visto llorar
La perfidia de tu amor.
Te he buscado por doquiera que yo voy,
Y no te puedo hallar.
¿Para que quiero otros besos
Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar?
Y tu, quien sabe por dónde andarás
Quien sabe que aventuras tendrás
Que lejos estás de mí.
Mujer, si puedes tu con Dios hablar,
Preguntale si yo alguna vez
Te he dejado de adorar.

Translation by Frank 1998
No soul alive can understand my pain
My dried up tears, that were once like the rain,
Left me, lonely and a shaken leaf,
Without a friend to share my grief.
If you would only speak to God on high,
And ask, he'd say that I do not lie
My love for you'll never die.
That mirror of my aching heart, the sea,
My tears so many times did see
Recounting all your treachery.
I seek your face where ever it is that I roam
It is nowhere to be found and you I miss.
Why search for other lovely lips to kiss,
But your's are not around, so far, far from home.
And you, who knows where you will walk
Who knows to whom your lips will talk
When they are so far from me.
If you would only speak to God on high,
And ask he'd say that I do not lie
My love for you'll never die.
