Mercedita
I remember with longing your charms, Mercedita
Perfumed beautiful flower, I remember that once
I met you in a field far away one afternoon
Today only the longing for this love that fell apart remains
That's how our desire was born with illusion, with much faith
But I don't know why this flower left me pain and loneliness
She left with another love, thus made me understand
What it is to desire, what it is to suffer because I gave her my heart
Time went by, the fields turning green
The longing just staying, inside my heart
But despite the time that has passed, Mercedita
This memory beats in my sad song
That's how our desire was born with illusion, with much faith
But I don't know why this flower left me pain and loneliness
She left with another love, thus made me understand
What it is to desire, what it is to suffer because I gave her my heart
