Mendigo Y Rey

She thought she was in paradise when that night with him
She gave herself body and soul and loving him she felt like a woman
He was twenty, she was sixteen
For her he was her beggar and her king
She gave him her whole life without limits and without measures
With the innocence of her first time

She felt how spring turned into winter on her skin
How her life passed missing him and never saw him again
Love grew in her belly
And in her heart, in her soul the pain
And between tears and wounds, courage and immeasurable strength
She felt the miracle of her child being born

She asked, where are you my love?
Why does no one talk to me about you?
Why do you make me suffer?
Why aren't you here?
Why does it hurt so much to live?

Who has your skin, your faithful gaze?
I miss you, I will wait for you
She lifted her baby, with courage and faith
She looked at the sky and smiled unintentionally

It was too strange that no one knew what happened
As from day to night and without saying goodbye he didn't return
Destiny no longer hid it from her
And in an old diary she discovered it
Like the man of her life one night on the road and in a hurry
He lost control and so his world ended

Suddenly she felt her body tired, she let her little arms fall
Her cheeks got wet, she drank the bitterness in a deep sigh
The pain made her stronger this time
She promised her son that everything would be fine
She tried and couldn't understand how her life would be
Without the warmth of her beggar and her king

She asked, where are you my love?
Why does no one talk to me about you?
Why do you make me suffer?
Why aren't you here?
Why does it hurt so much to live?

He has your skin, your faithful gaze
I miss you, I will miss you
She lifted her baby, with courage and faith
She looked at the sky and smiled unintentionally

My beggar and king
I will always love you
