De Flor En Flor
Carlos Gardel
From Flower to Flower
Crazy little head, your memory provokes me
You drowned in my arms
You wanted freedom, and in your delirium
Today you fly at your own will
Offering yourself to men
Who will later get tired
Surrendering to their whims
Will make you just one of many, your blind zeal
There's a poor butterfly
Going from flower to flower
Could be rocking you
In the little nest of my love
Today my soul with dread foresees
The great tragedy of your end
In the same flame that illuminates you
Your poor wings will burn
And then, dejected
Oh crazy little head
You pretend that the wound
I close it with my mouth
I swear to you
By my failed dream
By my torments
By my nights of pain
That in the spasm of my feverish kisses
I will leave sealed, with barbaric terror
Your sinful lips, united
For wanting to sip from flower to flower
Crazy little head, your memory provokes me
You drowned in my arms
You wanted freedom, and in your delirium
Today you fly at your own will
Offering yourself to men
Who will later get tired
Surrendering to their whims
Will make you just one of many, your blind zeal
There's a poor butterfly
Going from flower to flower
Could be rocking you
In the little nest of my love
