Alma En Pena

Carlos Gardel Carlos Gardel

Soul In Pain

Even time has not managed
to take away her memory,
erase the tenderness
that are written
in her withered letters
that I read with tears...
She did forget me!...
And today in front of her door
I hear her happy,
I sense her laughter
and I hear her telling another
the same lies she told me...

Soul... wandering in pain,
come close to her door
plead with tears:
Listen... forgive me if I ask you
for crumbs of forgetfulness
that make you happy...
You taught me to love and I have known!
And having learned it
kills me with love...
And as I am learning even to hate you,
just to forget you
I cannot learn.

That voice I hear again,
was once mine,
and today it is barely
the echo that illuminates
my poor soul in pain,
which falls dying
at the foot of her balcony...
That voice I cursed,
today I hear her promising another
glory,
and I close my eyes,
and it is a gift
of love, that I pick up
with my heart.
