Rosas De Otoño
Carlos Gardel
Autumn Roses
You are life, sweet life
Full of charms and lucidity
You sustain me and lead me
Almost to the peak of your haughtiness
You are constancy, I am patience
You are tenderness, I am mercy
You represent independence
I symbolize freedom
You know well, I am sick
And in my clear countenance it shows
That at night I hardly sleep
I don't sleep at all Do you know why?
Because I dream how much I appreciate you
And that by my side I will have you
They are vain, clumsy and foolish dreams
But my life, What am I going to do?
I suffer a lot, my soul hurts
And my situation is painful
That many times, seeking calm
I bring my fingers to the tuning fork
Never show disdain
Because if you do, poor me
Love me always, don't be so cruel
Come on, ungrateful, don't be like that
