El Ciego
Cheo Feliciano
The Blind Man
Have you seen how it loses its joy
a fountain already empty
when the water ran out,
it's the saddest thing in this world
and that's how I feel
for you, only for you.
Don't listen to the birds' lament
when they bitterly see their nest is lost,
it's the saddest thing in this world
that's how I feel
for you, only for you.
Don't look when a blind man falls in love
when he wants to see the dawn, how he starts to cry
and the moon suffers when it shines
and there are no two lovers
who want to contemplate it.
Don't look
when the sun is setting
as the day is dying
and the night has arrived,
it's the saddest thing in this world
and that's how I feel
for you, only for you.
Don't look when a blind man falls in love
when he wants to see the dawn,
how he starts to cry
and the moon suffers when it shines
and there are no two lovers
who want to contemplate it.
Don't look
when the sun is setting
as the day is dying
and the night has arrived,
it's the saddest thing in this world
and that's how I feel
for you, only for you.
