Porque Te Alejas
Cantares de La Cañadita
Why Do You Leave?
I've only lived watching you, my dear
Don't you have a little pity for my bloody pain?
If your faithful love has come too late for me
Out of unfortunate resentment
I feel, my love, that there's truth in your affection
While I suffer alone for your love
I've dreamed of truly loving you
I can't keep going on like this with my pain!
You are my love; a great pleasure
You are my dear; a star I adore
It's not such a big pain to have just one sorrow
And I'll be a slave to your love, going on like this without faith
It's so sad to live
I feel like a poor soul with no other desire
Than the dreamed love that exists in my desolation
If your beautiful Zafir comes closer to me, I'll live to beg for your forgiveness
And there's only one comfort for me, for you, it's my noble heart
With this happiness, my dear, I'll be happy; I must think of you to be able to live
You are my love; a great pleasure
You are my dear; a star I adore
It's not such a big pain to have just one sorrow
And I'll be a slave to your love, going on like this without faith
It's so sad to live
