Canción Del Olvido

Next to the portrait of that man
Whom I loved the most in the world
Engulfed in deep sorrow
A woman sang like this

In the fatal cup of my anguish
I search in vain to drink forgetfulness
For just like a wounded bird
I can no longer flap my wings

So many years of absence and you haven't returned!
Could it be that you don't care?
And yet you're the father of a kid
Who's calling out for you incessantly

You don't know how well he's doing
Today, so if you see him, you'll be surprised
You'd see how nicely he says 'dad'
I'll forget your bad deed and welcome you with open arms
With the forgiveness I'll eagerly give you

It's not possible to live so sadly
Surrendered to the most cruel torment
I need your words of encouragement
Your looks and kisses from yesterday

Give me back the lost happiness
Returning to my side just like before
Since the fruit of our sin
Has come to sing my love

You don't know how well he's doing
Today, so if you see him, you'll be surprised
You'd see how nicely he says 'dad'
I'll forget your bad deed and welcome you with open arms
With the forgiveness I'll eagerly give you
