Tengo Miedo

In the gambling of life
I stood with seven and a half
being the only stop
in life that I got right,
I was already on the slope
of ruin without remedy
but one day I said "I'm out"
and that day I left.

I left the real bar
of the eternal caravan
I moved away from the tango
and its ranting obsession,
with the sadness of my night
I made a beautiful morning,
cemetery of my life
turned into a garden!

Bachelor pad, races, gambling,
drinks of a vice
and fleeting affections,
false kisses from a woman,
I buried everything in the forgetfulness
of the bustling past
for the holy affection
that a man can have!

Today you see, I am calm,
that's why I kindly
beg you not to come
and disturb my sweet peace,
let me be with my mother,
by her side in a saintly way
I will build another life
since I feel capable.

I beg you to leave me,
I'm afraid of meeting you
because there is something in my existence
that can't forget you;
I'm afraid of your eyes,
I'm afraid of kissing you,
I'm afraid of loving you
and starting over.

Be good, don't look for me,
stay away from my path,
perhaps in another affection
you will find your redemption,
you know I don't want
my sweet talk to offend you,
it's just that I'm very afraid
that my heart will fail.
