A Fuego Lento
Daniel Celedón
Slowly Burning
Miguel Celedón, veteran
What pain I felt looking at her tonight
If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to that gathering
Girls you know are coming
That's what a friend told me, and I was surprised when she arrived
My friend was unaware of everything between us
She was confused, it had been many days since she heard from me
After everything ended completely
I didn't know about her life, and she didn't know about mine when I said goodbye
I felt anger, I felt great sadness
When I saw how beautiful she looked
I pretended to lower my head
To avoid her seeing me again
What great pain to see her like that
Close to me but so far away
What once made me happy
Now makes me slowly burn
What great pain to see her like that
Close to me but so far away
What once made me happy
Now makes me slowly burn
Carmen Julia Velázquez, how Isra's chicken loves you
I confess it was a terrible night
Later, the loud joy and revelry tormented me even more
It was like an unspeakable torture
And hearing the melody I composed for her one day almost made me cry
I watched her dance with another in silence
Her waist surrounded by strange hands moved me
What irony to see how time changes
Oh life, you repay me poorly if you've already taken my soul, leaving me with great pain
I felt anger, I felt great sadness
When I saw how beautiful she looked
I pretended to lower my head
To avoid her seeing me again
What great pain to see her like that
Close to me but so far away
What once made me happy
Now makes me slowly burn
What great pain to see her like that
Close to me but so far away
What once made me happy
Now makes me slowly burn
José Verastinegui, see you in beautiful Ocaña
