El Organillero
Agustín Lara
The Street Organ Grinder
Singing through the neighborhood of love
My street organ gets tired of crying
Its rumor gets into the ears
And is heard throughout the city
The street organ grinder is leaving now
With his playful tune
That is forgetfulness and love
And the whole neighborhood gets dizzy
And the heart skips a beat
When he sings his song
In his painful complaints
He told me so many things
Little street organ tune
Painful and playful
The street organ grinder is leaving now
Nobody knows where he's going
Where he keeps his song
Poor street organ grinder
If the handle wore you out
Turn the heart around
