Tu Vieja Ventana
Carlos Gardel
Your Old Window
I came to the foot of your old window, my dear
To offer you, my life, this love song
Because I want you to know that I love you, my Eden
And I feel you beating in my faithful heart
I wish, woman, that you understand
The affection so loyal that I have for you
That I spend hours thinking
And that's the reason why I can't even sleep
I brought these flowers from the field yesterday
My hands tore them eagerly for you
Because I want to see you happy, woman
And show you that I would die for you
If you were an interpreter, then
You would feel, just like I do
A love so strange and sweet
That if it didn't come true, it would be hell
Peek out your little face and don't make me suffer
I beg you for the sake of what I love most, my love
If not seeing you would make me capable of dying
Out of affection, perhaps, or strange pain
The culprits have been your eyes
And your lips, the accomplices were
That have me like a slave
And I am, if you want, your faithful prisoner
