Chacarera Del Martirio
Carlos Infante
Chacarera of Martyrdom
My wounds bleed, my lips burn with thirst
Tormenting sorrows because you don’t want to love me
Tears of blood flow from my eyes without end
Such cruel pains, I don’t know how I can bear!
They’ve placed a heavy cross on my back
With the bitterness of your wicked ingratitude
Blindfold me, I beg you, and crucify me
Because this endless suffering isn’t living anymore
A nameless torment plagues my poor heart
A crown of thorns covers my forehead with pain
Nothing would matter if I could ever find
The light of your eyes behind all this darkness
But it’s impossible when I feel the chill of disdain
A heart of stone, hard to love you again
Don’t pity me, my soul, just stab me
Once and for all, so I can stop this suffering
