El Mártir
Diomedes Díaz
The Martyr
They asked him for golden pennies
They asked him for his whole life
And he gave it, he gave it
There was no night he didn't wait for it
In a park near his house
And there he stayed, he stayed
They asked him to sing his songs
And he immediately took his guitar
He began to dream with his voice
If the Moon asked, he gave it
There was nothing, nothing
He gave the Moon and the Sun, it's the Sun
The martyr sighed there in the sand
The martyr didn't think about the pain
Maybe he loved her so much that his life
Was never the same again, it ended
And in the church he is going to marry
With a different man because
You can't give your heart away
His mother had told him once
Why did you do it?
I never asked you to worship me
Because they forced you to lie to me
And what could I do to them?
Why, my God, if it was so difficult to deceive me?
I hope you are happy and no one makes you pay for your betrayal
The martyr, lonely, leaves
But never believes in love again
The martyr, lonely, leaves
But never believes in love again
They asked him to kiss the silence
And he ran to find the path of loneliness, loneliness
He lived his most beautiful moments
He thought he was the envy of all
And that was the mistake of a mortal
They asked him to erase his innocence
And he began to know malice
To forget about God, his God
He didn't even want to remember the people
The noble and sincere friends
He forgot them, he forgot
The martyr cries wounded by his sadness
The martyr of his story is a loser
Maybe the day he found out the news
His laughter forever faded
And in the church garlands are seen
And a bride is blessed
He didn't understand how he could pretend
Why was he so evil-hearted?
Why did you do it?
I never asked you to worship me
Because they forced you to lie to me
And what could I do to them?
Why, my God?
If it was so difficult to deceive me
I hope you are happy
And no one makes you pay for your betrayal
The martyr, lonely, leaves
But never believes in love again
The martyr, lonely, leaves
But never believes in love again
Never again, lonely, he leaves
The martyr believes in love again
The martyr, lonely, leaves
But never believes in love again
Never again, lonely, he leaves
The martyr believes in love again
